Is pregnancy really as bad as someone make it out to be?

I am 20 years old & have been married for a year & a half, me and my husband have been considering starting a family :) We are financially stable but I have suffered with anxiety for some time, seems to be more like hypochondria (constant worry about my health) but am not a strong believer in medicines so I've been trying to excercise & deal with it on my own. Some women make pregnancy out to be so awful with all these awful symptoms and some make it out to be such an amazing experience...I am terrified of labor but I'm sure with you first child everyone is. But I'm wondering if this will cripple me even more with my anxiety or if I wll be so overtaken with all the "good" in the pregnancy it'll help me..
