It sounds like you have a lot on your plate. Could you start by seeing a doc and talking to him/her about the effects of bulimia on the baby? Is the father going to be supportive in your situation - can you talk to him?

You really need to go and see your Doctor and have a chat about the bulimia and the effects it could have on the baby.
All the best

Also, I know a lot of us can relate to feeling suicidal. It's not a fun place to be in. Are you at a point where you think you might try? If you are, I can promise that everybody here would want you call for help (911 or a suicide hotline) right away.

Amy, it seems to me that you need more than what support is available here. Regardless of the decision that you make, there are so many services in the community that can go through this process with you.

Many cities have specialized women's services to address these concerns. Until you learn about resources and who is available to help, you may be making a decision in a vacuum of information.

Undoubtedly, this is going to be a very difficult decision for you to make. You don't list your city, so I wasn't able to list any contact information.

Getting medical attention is a priority regardless of what your choices are and which direction you go.

Be well.

Do you have anyone (friends, family etc... to help you get through the pregnancy.

i dont know who the father is..

oh hun, this is tough, dont make any decisions yet, wait until the shock wares off....what about the father?? would he support you in any way....i wish i had some answers for you, but really you need some time and you need to talk to the father and your doctor and anyone else who will understand.....you are not alone, there are lots of people here who will support you now matter what you decide to do.....

i just moved out of my parents house about 2 months ago cause i dont get along with my step dad... i dont think they wil be very supportive

Please call 911. You are carrying inside you one of the best reasons to live. Especially as you say you would like to keep the baby. As for the health of the baby, a neighbor of mine's daughter had a baby and she has bulimia and the baby turned out perfectly fat and healthy.

start on prenatal vitamins now. it will help the health of the baby. Get a sonagram, as soon as u see that lil tiny baby inside of u moving round, seeing the heart beat, maybe it will help u in ur disession(sp). Whatever it may be, it is YOUR choice

Hi Amy. Before making any hasty decisions please make an appointment to consult your family doctor to see to your, and the baby's, physical health. Pretty much every community, no matter what it's size, will have programs and support services you can access. Most family doctors are an excellent stepping stone towards accessing these resources. *Hugs* hon.

thanks everyone

Good luck to you. Keep us updated, if you would like, on how you are feeling and how things are going. Reach out if you need help locating the right professional resources that you need.

Amy, the Planned Parenthood idea was what I was going to suggest. Do you know how far along you are? Have you been eating and not purging? Please let the professionals that abound in our communities help you out. There are also open adoptions available, so many things out there we couldn't all possibly know. Please promise you'll make an appointment tomorrow and we'll hold you up til the appt and through all of this regardless of the decision you make. We're here.

just want you to knwo you are loved and being thought of regardless of your decisions hun..you are such a beautiful person inside and out...hope and pray for nothing but the best in life for you my friend...you are worth nothing less...dont you give up on yourself girl...loves you lots...holly
