Cutting And Pregnancy
Posted: 08-29-07 14:04pm

o.k. I'm 8 weeks pregnant with my 3rd child, had twins 3 years ago, and I am finding it soo much harder to keep from doing anything harmful to myself at this time. I have not cut since June 19th and that was a really bad one. I know I can not practice hurting myself at this time, not only because I do it so severely that I have nearly died a few times and have permant damege from it, but also because I feel like if I hurt myself I might as well be hurting my baby. Does anybody have any suggestions for surviving this or has anybody been in this same predicament? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have quit every thing I do to cope at all once, including my E.D.

Are you seeking counseling for this? You should be seeing someone who is qualified to help with this kind of behavior. Please speak with your doctor about it.

Good luck.

i agree with everyone else on this one, when your pregnant your horomones are all crazy, wich can lead to being very aggrivated or overly upset wich might tempt you to cut yourself. You definately need to talk to someone about this, maybe let your obgyn know when you go to your first appointment , they may be able to refer you to someone. hope this helps Smile
