Labor & delivery anxiety?

Hey girls,
Anyone here getting anxious about the labor & delivery. I'm getting ready to have baby #2 (another daughter for us), but am starting to get kinda nervous & scared about the labor & delivery. I had a hard labor w/ my first daughter. I was in labor 13 hours, pushed 2 1/2, and she weighed 9 lbs. 7 oz.! I had to have an episiotomy, and I had a post partum hemmorhage after having her. Luckily I didn't need a blood transfusion. I have a new OB/GYN now, and told him I was a little nervous about the delivery because of the last PPH... but he just acted like I'd be fine & didn't seem too concerned. I'm getting scared though... Anyone else feeling the same or anyone else have a PPH before? Thanks... any comments would be appreciated! : )
