Anon - Your friend's behavior is already affecting her own health which will, of course, impact her ability to conceive and fetal development. If she wants to have the healthiest possible baby she needs to make a full commitment to her own health immediately rather than view it as something she can do a month or two before trying to conceive. Additionally, in preparing to become pregnant, a recently study found that there's an important three to four month window prior to conception in which diet and nutrition play a key role.

Thanks for advocating for your friend - I hope you will be successful in getting her to see the need to take her own health seriously. Pat
