ah i forget the name of that where you eat
things that are non edible . but yeah that
is definately a problem, i would go to
your dr and get checked out. Some pregnant
women get that and crave weird things like
dirt and such , can also mean your anemic.
definately have a talk with your dr about
that. that could have serious health
affects. im not sure what kind but im sure
some are involved.

It sounds like pica, I think that's the
name of the disorder. You start craving
weird stuff like dirt or chalk because
your body is lacking nutrients. You
should definitely see your doctor about it
and get some blood tests run.

I have the same disorder and have had it
since I was 5. I eat chalk, dry wall, baby
powder, and pumice stones. I need to get
help as well. Baby Powder causes cancer,
tumors, and messes up our filter systems.
It's more serious then u think. Ur 18 and
younger so get it fixed now. I'm 21 and
just can't stop.

babymama_18, I commend you for reaching
out now. It's a really hard topic to open
up about, but you're headed in the right
direction.

BATH TUB WITH NOTHING BUT BABY POWDER AND
JUST SWIM IN IT ALL DAY OR HAVE A BABY
POWDER FIGHT WITH NOTHING BUT BABY POWDER

I have been eating baby powder for as long
as I can remember. I always thought it was
weird but I couldn't help but to eat it.
It is really really good. And when I don't
eat it, it's like i drag, or I can't
function or something. I carry a bottle in
my purse, one in my glove compartment, 2
in my desk drawers @ wrk. The huge bottles
at that. I just can't stop. I don't even
want to mention how many I have in my
house. I don't know how to stop. I ate the
chalk for a very long time then started on
the powder. The only time I can remember
stopping was when I was pregnant with my
son. 9 1/2 Long months I waited. Then
received like 20 bottles for my son at my
babyshower.
It's always around me and sooooo good to
me.
What can happen to my body being that I
have been eating it for so long?
