Hi! You look beautiful! Congrats on your second baby! I was anorexic for many many years but after having children, and allowing myself to love myself I'm happy to say that I do not suffer any longer. the only thing that remains is some body dismorphia and I'm not sure if that ever goes away. But I know what I think that I see isn't probably really there and check in with my hubby from time to time. It's good to someone to keep me in check, you know?

LOTS OF LOVE! If you need any tips for staying raw during your pregnacy please feel free to contact me!

Hi watermelon congratulations on your second pregnacy! & having the courage switching back to a healthier life style!
How are you doing?
Cute pics of you and your family.
Pregnacy really suits you!

I hope you don't mind me asking, how long have you been battling for? I was anorexic/bulimic for 10 years, been recovered as it were for about 4 years now. I'm still trying to gain weight myself would love to have a family, but I have osteoperosis due to the ed, & I have hip dysplasia( hips get stuck & dyslocate easy)
Did you find any problems with you pregnacies ?if you dont mind me asking? as I have heard of women that have had, factures of the spine hip probs with having osteo, & broken ribs especially in the thrid trimester ? This is really concerning me & I have no one to really relate to with my worrries who has gone through the same as me.

Take good care

Have wonderful day

HI Laurie,

Oh, that are some stressfull things :(
How is your son doing now? How old is he (if I might ask)?
Yeah, I know stressing about things before the baby comes. Looking back there was nothing to stress about. Nigel always slept with us, so we never used his bed (we didn't make a room for him, we planned sleeping in the same room). If some day we will have another baby, all I need is some clothes, a carrier and my breasts :)
Are you planning a home-birth? Do you have a birthplan?

Oh, what an exciting time!!!

I wish you a peacefull, stressless and loving time...

Hi beautiful lady!
You probably have to answer this question everytime you log on (with that picture and all) but when are you due.
You look so gorgeous, beautiful skin.

Detoxing?

Yesterday was not one of my best days in this pregnancy. I felt tired, depressed, emotional, irritable, headachy, and restless. I usually have cravings for some cooked food at somepoint everday but yesterday they were the strongest. I survived but was a little worried. Is it detox? pregnancy? both? should I be worried?I see the doctor tomorrow, and the therapist. i've gained almost 5 pounds since the puring stopped, and so i'm pleased. I hope the doctor has good news for me about my bloodwork fr… Continue

Bad News

all of my bloodtests have come back negative. I'm severly anemic, I have very low blood platelets, and I have gestational diabetes, and the worst part is that its all my falt. My doctor said this is all due to the fact that I had an extreame eating disorder and never got proper care in time. She said that she highly reccomends that I get what my body needs quickly because i'm high risk and could go into labor any time in the next 10 weeks and if I do there is a good chance that I will have compl… Continue

the effect cooked food has on me after only a little over 2 weeks raw

last night I made a super nutritious veggie and kale soup with lentil beans for my family, and actually had a bowl of it with a piece of sprouted grain bread and earth balance. My first un purged cooked meal in over two weeks. I woke up a couple of hours ago, around 4am with a horrible back ache and soreness all over that was so bad that I thought I could be in labor. on top of that my constipation that I thought was gone forever suddenly came back. I'm starting to feel a little better now after… Continue
