Does anyone have any experience with helping Anorexics/Bulemics bf? I
have a young woman who only gained 8 pounds during pregnancy who says she
wants to bf, but tells me she gets nauseated every time the baby latches on
and is repulsed when comes time to actually feeding. I suspect that there
may be a history of sexual abuse, but she hasn't revealed it. She claims
she's eating normally; diet history shows calories are too low though.
TIA!
Chris
