I heard a radio report this weekend about the evolutionary origins of morning sickness. One theory states that back in the days of early humans and plant foraging much of the food humans ingested was somewhat toxic. As a result, it was BETTER for a pregant woman to avoid those foods and/or throw them up in order to protect the fetus. Aren't we lucky nowadays to have summer fresh fruit, whole grain breads and the bounties of organic vegetable gardens? Eat up moms-to-be! And keep those meals small and frequent.
