Bulimic And Pregnant
Posted: 09-08-05 15:20pm

I have been bulimic for 4 years. I am now 10 weeks pregnant. I am still struggling with my bulimia and I am very scared that it is going to hurt the baby. I have told everyone. I need help to get out of this cycle. It would kill me if I lost the baby, I would blame myself. Is there anyone who can help. Anything will do.

I'm so sorry, I don't really know what I can say that can help you, at least you know you have a problem that could harm your baby, the only advise that I can give you is that you have to put your baby first and take it only one day at a time. I would probably suggest that you talk to the doctor about it aswell, maybe he could help you come up with a meal plan so that you are not binging and end result not feeling the urge to purge cause you ate too much. (sorry I don't really know a whole lot on the subject)

take all the support from your family and friends that you can.

Take care of yourself and the baby.

You really need to talk to a professional and be totally honest and let him/her know about you bulimia, please! Please keep us posted, we care and want to know how you both are doing, I am no Dr. You are in my thoughts and prayers! Please seek help, you both need nutrition!
