Back up battery for RTC of STM32F103RB

Dear friends,
I have a problem when reading counter register of RTC in STM32F103RB. After resetting the MCU, the value starts from zero. I have a 3V backup battery connected to VBAT pin. My code to config RTC is in below

void RTC_Config(void)
 {
/* Enable PWR and BKP clocks */
  RCC_APB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB1Periph_PWR | RCC_APB1Periph_BKP, ENABLE);

  /* Allow access to BKP Domain */
  PWR_BackupAccessCmd(ENABLE);

  /* Reset Backup Domain */
  BKP_DeInit();

  /* Enable LSE */
  RCC_LSEConfig(RCC_LSE_ON);
  /* Wait till LSE is ready */
  while (RCC_GetFlagStatus(RCC_FLAG_LSERDY) == RESET)
  {}

  /* Select LSE as RTC Clock Source */
  RCC_RTCCLKConfig(RCC_RTCCLKSource_LSE);

  /* Enable RTC Clock */
  RCC_RTCCLKCmd(ENABLE);

  /* Wait for RTC registers synchronization */
  RTC_WaitForSynchro();

  /* Wait until last write operation on RTC registers has finished */
  RTC_WaitForLastTask();

  /* Enable the RTC Second */
  RTC_ITConfig(RTC_IT_SEC, ENABLE);

  /* Wait until last write operation on RTC registers has finished */
  RTC_WaitForLastTask();

  /* Set RTC prescaler: set RTC period to 1sec */
  RTC_SetPrescaler(32767); /* RTC period = RTCCLK/RTC_PR = (32.768 KHz)/(32767+1) */

  /* Wait until last write operation on RTC registers has finished */
  RTC_WaitForLastTask();
//----------------------------------------------------
 }


in main function:

rtc_val=RTC_GetCounter();
