Pregnancy Sympathy Syndrome

When spending a lot of time around a pregnant woman, you start to develop some of the same symptoms without actually being pregnant-- specifically food cravings.

Alternatively, when the pregnant friend feels unmotivated and lazy, you share her lack of motivation.
Preggo friend: I'm craving a tub of Duncan Hines icing...
Non-preggo friend: Oh man, me too! We should totally go to the grocery store and buy some!
Preggo friend: You're such a good friend for not making me feel alone.
Non-preggo friend: It's just the Pregnancy Sympathy Syndrome talking... where's the freezer aisle?
