YIPPEEEEE! All my very most positive vibes are heading straight for your midsection, can you feel them? & guess what? I'm in my 10th week with #2 myself! And especially in the 2nd month I absolutely could NOT stay off all the things I'd cut out of my diet (esp. simple sugars); they were all my body wanted. Ugh. Anyway, I am THRILLED for you and have all appendages crossed. Hope to hang out with you SOON--we can sit around being queasy together! xox, jessica Laureen! YIPPEEEEE!

Hey, at least going for Irish potato ancestry has to be better than my Italian wheat pasta ancestry (or technically, polenta where my family comes from, but Italian customs are all mixed up now) ;-) I haven't yet looked through all your links, but that first one is really interesting. I never actually had full-on puking morning sickness, but I had heightened aversions and nausea to yucky chemical smells and basically concluded what that study said. It sucked that I couldn't sleep in our newly-painted and furnished bedroom for months, LOL, but baby let me know he didn't like it there ;-) I couldn't send potatoes, and I don't think I can post a photo here, so I'm hoping <a href="http://blogs.twocockatoos.info/cockatoos.php/2007/10/18/sending_potatoes " rel="nofollow">this</a> works... L, congrats!

Long live the potatoes - uhm, their eater+! Keeping fingers and toes crossed...
