I think my daughter is bulimic. She is
beginning her second trimester. She has
an eating disorder. My family witnessed
many times her throwing up in the sinks
and toilets. Should I call her ob dr's
office and let them know about this? I
looked up info on how this disorder can
affect the fetus. I'm worrying! Need
some help here!

Are you sure she has an eating disorder?
Could it be morning sickness?
When you have an eating disorder it is
very difficult to control your behaviour
around food even if she is pregent. I
think the best thing to do is to get her
to see her doctor because there could be a
lot of damage done to her and the baby if
she is bulimic.
However she might not have an eating
disorder it could have something to do
with morning sickness but either way if
you are worried then I really think the
doctor is the best option.
Let me know if you have any other
questions and i'll do my best to answer
them.
I hope everything is going well.
