In this study, the authors aimed to investigate the risk for a wide array of adverse pregnancy outcomes among people with bulimia nervosa using an adjustment analysis to account for maternal confounding factors. Findings suggest that pregnant people with bulimia nervosa were at increased risk for a number of clinically important adverse live born pregnancy outcomes. Like others, however, we found no association with preterm birth overall, low birth weight, or small for gestational age.
