Infertility

Bulimic and Pregnant...VENT

So, the new Dr.Phil show that is airing tonight at 5:00pm (Eastern time) is about a young woman who is BULIMIC and PREGNANT....AND PREGNANT ON PURPOSE! The clip said she already had one child with problems from her bulimia, and now she purposely got pregnant again knowing she has an eating disorder that can be detrimental to her babies health. I understand eating disorders are a disease, but it's so freaking difficult to watch these women put their babies at risk and be selfish, and dare I say 'unfit' to be a mother. So many of us are doing everything and anything we can for at least one healthy beautiful baby, and these idiots are putting theirs at risk.... IT MAKES ME SO MAD! Life is unfair, obviously. Thats all I have to say.

  • uggh!  Not turning in to that, last Dr. Phil I saw had a girl who got pregnant on purpose because she wanted to be on TV.  She was hoping for 16 and pregnant because then maybe you can be on teen mom.  Remember back when Murphey Brown was scandalous because she was an adult professional who was having a baby on her own?

  • So annoying!! t's so frustrating and disgusting at the same time that she would put her baby at risk knowing she is struggling with something like bulimia. INSANE. [Speaking of 16 & pregnant] My city has a ridiculously high rate of teen pregnancy so I always have to deal with seeing high schoolers and young teens pregnant. We have one of the highest teen pregnancy rates in our city. Drives me bonkers. Our time will come and when it does we will be amazing mothers. <3

  • Teen mom drives me nuts!! But it's like a train wreck, I have to watch it. I just can't comprehend these girls thought process and there's only so much you can blame on the parents. They baffle me continuously.

  • I DVR'd dr Phil today bc I wanted to see this episode. Unfortunately they had a different episode on where I live. I live about 30 min from Newtown CT so the dr Phil episode was about the sandy hook shooting.

  • same here...on the TV guide, and all commercials said it would be this episode, but was about the elementary school as well (I live in New England also).
