Too Much Sympathy?(found this in my email from Baby Bump)

"If lately your partner has had leg cramps, cravings for ice cream and pickles, and mysterious abdominal pain not related to eating said ice cream and pickles, your significant other could be experiencing what’s called “Couvade Syndrome." It’s a condition in which pregnant women's partners think they're experiencing pregnancy-like symptoms. Whether this happens out of sympathy, anxiety, or even jealousy is unclear. Although this is a common occurrence, the causes of Couvade Syndrome are up for debate. If it’s purely out of sympathy and a desire to share or alleviate your pain, ask your partner to give you a massage!"
