Jana Romanova. Waiting

All people wait in a different way. Especially when they are going to have a baby. Being ready to give birth to a child is in a woman's nature. Once she got pregnant woman is ready to become a mother. Usually this force is stronger than all thoughts and hesitations, and during pregnancy her mind changes as well as her body. But when it comes to a man there is always a question. Hormones don't effect his behavior and there is no little life growing inside him during 9 month. Is ;waiting for a child social or natural for a man in our world? What is special in his waiting? Young couples in the big city of Saint-Petersburg are sleeping or drowsing early in the morning, the time when people don't really care about their appearance and one can see their attitude to each other and to this little miracle that is growing inside their family. It's one of the most amazing situations when we see two persons, but in fact there are three of them. Magic!
