YOUR RESULTS!
If you scored mostly A’s…
Kick off your shoes and check your feet. Is your second toe longer than your first? If so, congrats! You’ve got Morton’s Toe, a condition that can cause significant discomfort. When the second toe takes on more weight than it should, it leads to a chain reaction of pain throughout your body. So, while you may feel like the Statue of Liberty, you might want to consider some supportive footwear!
If you scored mostly B’s…
Surprise! You may have developed sudden-onset adult allergies. It’s like your immune system is mistaking friends for foes. You could be allergic to something as common as pollen, so a visit to an allergist could be beneficial. Plus, there are great supplements like Quercetin to help manage your symptoms. Don’t forget to check out a Neti Pot or possibly get some Nasonex to ease the struggle!
If you scored mostly C’s…
You’re practically perfect! But you probably already knew that.
If you scored mostly D’s…

Plan ahead with healthy meals and snacks, and don’t forget to check out this awesome resource for more on pregnancy and home insemination.
