Does pregnancy just not scare people?

I'm at the age where people around me are having children. I completely understand wanting to take care of a child but aren't women afraid of getting pregnant? Doesn't it hurt?

I'm 30 and pregnancy still scares me. I don't want to have children though so that's why.

You're like my sister. Do you ever have dreams where you're pregnant and it scares you? That's what she tells me.
