Eating Disorders During Pregnancy

Great artical

Great resource that should be taught more broadly

Concise and informative.

It was interesting to read from the perspective of someone wanting to plan for a baby.

Very informative

The SCOFF tool is new to me but rather clever and easy to remember. I enjoyed this article.

Eye opening! Loved it.

Interesting article, was introduced to the SCOFF tool which I had not heard of before

I also worked in a very busy ante-natal clinic in Frankston Hospital in Victoria where we we screened our ante-natal clients extensively and yet we did not cover eating disorders in our lengthy assessments. When considering the study by Bye et al. (2018) that describes the five main barriers to ante-natal women disclosing eating disorders to be due to Stigma; Lack of opportunity; Preference for self-management; Current symptomatology and Illness awareness; we need to address these perceived barriers by the ante-natal women in this study in every ante-natal clinic. Public ante-natal clinics are always very busy and tend to rush clients through; however eating disorders clearly needs to assessed and addressed accordingly.

this was an interesting and informative article to discussed eating disorders and social issues/barriers with regards to pregnancy
