Wicked - great news about chocolate

[ThomCat]

A study showed that mothers who ate chocolate in their pregnancy had babies who smiled and laughed more!

Wohoooo. Mine should come out crying with laughter in that case

[MamaMaiasaura]

fab - i scoffed loads of malteasers today!!

[tortoiseSHELL]

Fantastic!

[tuftyclub]

They say it makes them calmer, I ate loads of chocolate, my girl did nowt but scream

[ThomCat]

Dino - didn't you know? No3 due Sept

Am halfway through the last easter egg

[ThomCat]

Tufty - no it says it makes them happier so I'm goig to keep eating my easter egg, don't spoil it for me, ok!

[MrsMar]

Blimey TC, halfway through last easter egg? Mine didn't make it to Easter Monday!!! I hope it applies to crummy chocolate and not some poncey 70% cocoa solids dark stuff. I'm currently mainlining Kinder Bueno.... hmmmm bueno!

I ate masses of choc all through my pg and dd was been one of the smiliest babies I've ever seen (now smiley toddler). Stick with it, its good for you and the baby

[Rosetip]

I'm a complete chocoholic (is that spelt right?), and have been really worried that this has contributed to the huge size of my baby.

Also surely they will come out addicted to the stuff? I'm worried that my baby will never stop crying from the loss of the daily fix.

Having said that, I'm very happy to hear these comforting words and dark choc supposedly does have health benefits...

tc - my three should be hysterical - mm perhaps that is why dd1 is such a happy thing

[alipiggie]

I knew there was a good reason why I love choccie so much. I craved chocolate eclairs in both pregnancies . And as for maltesers say no more.

Anyone tried Aero Mint Bubbles?? Or Planets? Addicted to both atm

Phew guilty feeling from 5 handfuls of choc buttons today wiped away, thanks Thomcat
