Chimamanda Adichie was on The Guardian’s Culture web chat one day ago to answer questions sent in by readers. She answered many question on her books, writing, thoughts on different issues and of course motherhood.

One reader asked, ”What excites you the most about being a new mom? What terrifies you the most about being a mom?”, and below is Chimamanda Adichie’s beautiful response.
Most exciting – a new and unique kind of love has come into my life, glorious and joyful and encompassing and full of discovery.
Most terrifying – the anxiety-filled desire to protect her from everything and the terror-filled sense that I cannot.
