You may know popular science writer Jena Pincott because of her book, Do Gentlemen Really Prefer Blondes? which has now been translated into 17 languages. Her accessible style of offering us scientific information about love and sexual attraction appears on her blogs for The Huffington Post and Psychology Today. In just the past week alone, she reports on: men’s pregnancy symptoms, sexual attractiveness during pregnancy, and how we appeal to others by a line in our eyes.
We’re thrilled that she’s reporting on pregnancy in a fascinating new way with her new book, Do Chocolate Lovers Have Sweeter Babies? The Surprising Science of Pregnancy. It has received a Kirkus starred review and digs into questions like:
- Do skinny chicks have more daughters?
- Why is hubby getting sick and chubby?
- Could sex prevent miscarriage?
- Is there a purpose to painful birth?
“A pregnant woman has more power than she realizes. Our ancestors believed that what we think, eat, and otherwise experience in pregnancy influences the baby in the womb - and there’s increasing evidence it’s true.” Jena Pincott

February 4th, 2012 at 11:47 amWith every thing that appears to be developing inside this specific area, your opinions are generally relatively radical. On the other hand, I beg your pardon, but I can not subscribe to your whole theory, all be it exhilarating none the less. It would seem to us that your commentary are not entirely justified and in fact you are yourself not even wholly confident of the argument. In any case I did take pleasure in looking at it.
