In a documentary aired tonight at 9pm on ITV1, The truth about super skinny celebrities, Louise Redknapp investigates the current fashion to maintain a glamorous and slim pregnancy, and why many women feel the pressure to do so.
She also discovers why some women try to get back to their pre birth shape immediately after their baby is born and the health risks involved.Louise talks to other women who are pregnant or have had babies in the public eye, and meets the ordinary mums and mums-to-be who are influenced by the stories they read in magazines. How much pressure do they feel to live up to the Yummy Mummy dream? And she’ll also meet pregorexic women – a worryingly growing band of pregnant women who are starving themselves and their unborn babies.Chat about this issue in the forums

RE: Louise Redknapp investigates super skinny pregnancies
Louise Redknapp is amazing, she stays out of the lime light which she should be respected for.
