This cross-sectional study evaluated 73 outpatients with…

Dysfunctional eating behaviour, psychological well-being and adaptation to pregnancy
This study evaluated the prevalence and predictors of dysfunctional eating. Women in the third trimester of pregnancy participated in this study ( N = 105). Dysfunctional eating was associated with a higher body mass index, enhanced negative body image, more somatic symptoms, poorer marital relationships, more negative attitudes regarding pregnancy and the baby and more emotional problems. A higher body mass index prior to the pregnancy, higher w…
