The Big Question

Many mom's who are pg with #2 worry about being able to love 2 children with as much love/passion as they love their first child.  I actually don't worry about that.  I know I will be able to love both my children with my entire being.  My question is, do you love each child the same?

In life we are always asked "which do you like better?".  You always have a preference.  As I laid awake pondering this question I tried to come up with things that I love exactly the same.  My initial thought was my parents.   I love them both so much and if I had to chose one over the other, I couldn't do it.  I love them for different reasons but I love them just the same.  Is that how it will be with my children?

I was never one of those women that fell instantly in love the moment I held Gwen.  She was screaming and I was freaked out.  It took a few days but the unconditional love came.  What will those first few days with BP bring?  I have all ths love for Gwen and then I am initially going to throw a stranger (and some crazy ass hormones) into the mix.  I am so excited to see how this plays out............how strong the power of a mother's love truly is.
