A person with anorexia nervosa engages in excessive calorie restriction and physical exercise to reduce body weight. These activities stem from the patient's difficulty accepting his or her appearance. Pregnancy will undoubtedly cause a change in body weight and may trigger unwanted behavior related to anorexia nervosa. The nurse can anticipate this and suggest counseling or therapy about body image prior to weight gain. It would be dangerous to endorse calorie restriction dieting in this patient. Vomiting is a component of bulimia nervosa, not anorexia nervosa. Since the patient is an adult, it's inappropriate for the nurse to reach out to the woman's parents without prior authorization from the patient. Moreover, it is likely not appropriate to discuss financial support unless it is established within the professional relationship.
