Is there any information about eating disorders and how they sway?

[justlikeme]

Hello ladies? I was reading the success sways and I found in one of them that the lady said something about eating disorders related with boys, it's this true? Is there any threat about this? I did have a eating disorder when I was a teenager and I do have three boys ...

I had an eating disorder as a teenager as well, and have 2 boys. But I have friends from treatment who now have both boys and girls, so I think each situation is different. I am just thankful I have been able to conceive at all with the crap I put my body through back then.

I know atomic has put information out about it, you just have to read a lot through what she's brought up.

Thank you I'm gonna keep reading...but do you know if there's any relation between eating disorders and having boys? And yes I know it is hard to think about the past, so thankful for my boys too

I remember reading studies that showed that ladies with bulemia and anorexia were more likely to have girls

I had an eating disorder as a teenager and I have two boys. My aunt had an eating disorder when she was younger and she has 3 girls, so I don't know. But I have noticed past eating disorders seem to be more common amongst the boy mums here.

the studies were about LOs conceived during the disorder I think

I also struggled with bulimia for a long time when I was young. I had been recovered for a few years before I started having children. I have 3 BOYS! I don't know if it is related but it could be lol!

I had both bulimia and anorexia at different stages and I have 2 girls. All 3 sisters in law were having some sort of eating disorder when they had their girls. After they had their babies, body image was not a priority i guess, and they started eating good to keep up the energy and all 3 went to have boys afterwards.

Thank you ladies for the answers! It looks to me like more boys where conceived after having a eating disorder probably because of the fact that obviously you start taking care of your body, eating more healthy, taking your vitamins and more, so your body can have a recovering time and your body gets the idea of good times= good fertility= boys?? I will love to hear from Atomic about this

You will have to apologize me for my half English this not my native language I really hope you can understand me most of the time
