Good book!

I'm reading Do Chocolate Lovers Have Sweeter Babies? The Surprising Science of Pregnancy, and it's fascinating! I geek out over the things going on with baby building, and this book is a real curious mama's delight. Has anybody else read this? I'm figuring I'll tear through it waiting on my Ina May Gaskin that theresat858 recommended!

    I haven't read the book, although it is now on my list. But, I did see reference to a study that showed that women who consistently ate chocolate during their pregnancies had babies who were quicker to laugh and easier to sooth than those that didn't. But, I didn't read the actual study.

    I'm sure glad I'm not shy about the dark chocolate squares I've been consuming, then!

    The author mentions studies for every odd little thing she explores, though most of them are animal studies (naturally). Still, I find it terribly interesting! I hope you like it!
