    'love at first sight' experiences

    Hi all

    For those who had an amazing - perhaps spiritually charged - experience upon meeting your newborn child, would you write me a paragraph that attempts to describe what you thought/felt?

    Particularly interested in euphoria/ecstasy.

    TIA

    Spice.

    what do you want it for?

    Thanks for asking
    I'm writing a novel and while it doesn't include a birth experience, it does include someone feeling utterly overwhelmed (with joy and compassion) by people/humans and I thought that maybe some mothers could describe that?
    I won't quote verbatim, I'm just seeking images, phrases, words that capture a feeling.
    Is that okay?
