I was wondering honestly how bad is bulimia for you or your pregnancy. I mean if you digest your food, by time it reaches the stomach it has already broken it down and taken the good stuff, right? So how bad could it be? Am I crazy to think this?

I think it would be pretty rough on the baby, one can only assume so because it's harmful to the mother.

I hope your not asking this because you are hun but I am always here if you wanna talk

I would say it's very bad for the baby. The stomache doesn't take the nutrients out of the food-that's what your small and large intestine do. So if you throw it up you're not getting ANY nutrients.

Its deff very bad for the baby!! Bc ure body dosnt have time to take in the nutrients! I only know this bc my sister was when she was preg with her daughter. Her daughter was born way under weight and way early! She was luckey that she even survived

Bulimia can be very detrimental to your pregnancy.

[mommyofdani]

Food is not broken down in the stomach. It is turned into chyme which is then, through the help of enzymes from your pancreas, digested in your small intestines. Throwing up your food, period, gives you NO nutrition, only the satisfaction of tasting food.

Yeah not to mention it greatly increases your risk of miscarriage. It could also cause prematurity, low birth weight and increases the chance of a pregnant woman getting gestational diabetes. All in all eating disorders and pregnancy do not mix.

Apart from the fact that it IS bad for the baby it's not good for the mother either. Alot of ongoing problem can be caused and it isn't fun believe me! If you ever need to talk be sure to PM me or one of the other girls!
