Now there's scientific proof that chocolate is good for us. A Finnish study has found that expectant mothers who eat chocolate have babies who are happier and less fearful.
There is an associaition between the amount of chocolate pregnant women eat and babies' behaviours. Babies born to mothers who had eaten chocolate daily during preganancy were more active and laughed and smiled more. They also showed fewer signs of fear of new situations. However, the researchers warned that both eating chocolate and baby behaviour could be linked to some other factor. Until then, enjoy your dose of chocolate!
