Does starving yourself while pregnant harm the baby?!
Question: Does starving yourself while pregnant harm the baby!?
If someone developed an eating disorder (anorexia, for example) whilst they were round about 12wks pregnant, would the baby die!?

If they stopped eating all together not only would they be very ill, the baby would not develop properly - the bone structure, organs etc, so it would be a very sick, if not dead baby!.
If they ate very little, then the damage would be slightly less to them and the baby!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yep im sure it will harm the baby as the baby will not be receiving the nutrition and stuff it needs to grow properly!.
I was told when i was pregnant i needed to put on some weight as my BMI was low saying i was underweight & im not even very thin!.
I think (Sorry if im wrong) being underweight can make you higher risk of a premature birth and a higher risk of miscarriage!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

my mam developed one when pregnant with me because my dad died, but I'm OK, this wasn't for any extensive period of time though (like a month) and I think that she was forced to eat too!. But I'm a 13stone guy and I did OK at school!.
I would suggest not doing it though, as I say she was forced to eat!.

There was a test done that my father told me about a few years ago where they managed to grow a baby or keep it alive for want of better words, on 13 mars bars!. So yes im sure it would have some serious repercussions!.
I don't know if he was having me on but he sounded pretty serious!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Not only could the baby die but it would be harmful to the mother as well!. Here is a great site for research!.
