This is the point where a disclaimer becomes necessary: "All content of this blog is the opinion of the writer and not necessarily based on any actual fact or legitimate research". For example, today we proved our own hypothesis correct while sitting around a women's poker table. The study was in response to our dear baby-bearing buddy who is still in the "wake up and puke" stage.
It was first declared that morning sickness was a reaction to the woman's body trying to interpret the male's different DNA.
It was then proposed that women pairing with men of similar gene types may have less morning sickness.
After a short pause, nodding heads and pensive looks - our living proof (mildy mortified) spoke up at the end of the table. Her great grandmother had married her cousin and had indeed been spared any morning sickness!
It was then noted that research studies (marginally more professional than ours) had found a correlation between intelligence levels in offspring and the dissimilarity of genes between their parents. i.e. the more similar, the less intelligent.
hmmm.
As such, our group of non-scientists decided that morning sickness may be in the name of the baby's brain...so it's not so bad after all;)
