Lilly from Accounts, phones to say she read a piece of Swedish research that babies in the womb love chocolate. It makes them really happy and it has calcium in it. Dark chocolate even has iron in it. Fantastic news. None of the pregnancy books mention this. My guilt books are full of colour photos of herring roll mops and mackerel with sad eyes. Now even if I wasn’t feeling nauseous, the sight of both these species in my fridge would make me a bit green around the gills. At the moment, I am struggling to keep a glass of water down not to mention the quarter ton of fruit, exotic, steamed vegetables and iron rich red meat every Mother-to-be apparently makes time to devour. I have become a major convert of fizzy cola bottles and raw celery sticks which both seem to stave off the nausea attacks.
