Getting a C-section and extremly scared.

Today I went to a routine doctors appt and found out that we are going to do a planned c section due to medical problems. I'm very scared since I have never had anything done like this before. Any advice or words to help me stress less?

i had an emergency c-section with my daughter. i was terrified and freaked out but honestly once it was all over i felt great. i would get another c-section in a heartbeat. she was out within minutes.
like kellym says you will be scared but just remember millions of women have gone through this.
also stay awake for it soo amazing hearing your baby cry for the first time. and you'll feel a million times better after then you would if you go under
best of luck hun and congratulaions
