The desire to have a baby for a woman suffering from anorexia requires the health professional to address the issues of restrictive behaviour, weight gain and body image. The players concerned must be able to recognise these patients and their frailty. They need to be aware of and trained in eating disorders. Multi-disciplinary monitoring is essential in order to provide care adapted to the mother and the infant.
