Unconditional Love

I love my baby- Never before have I loved something I didn't really have, or loved someone I'd never met. I've never felt such a dedication to an entity which will not be capable of demonstrating reciprocation for years and years. The background image on my computer is my mid-term ultrasound, and every time I look at it, I feel this overwhelming feeling of devotion- I can't wait to meet my baby, to hold him/her in my arms and just be in his/her presence. This is a whole new dimension of love for me, and it's at the same time comforting and scary.

**UPDATE**
So maybe it doesn't take years and years for your baby to demonstrate reciprocal love...
