If my wife ever gets pregnant, she decided to quite the green while carrying. I support her decision completly and would have advised her to do the same thing. I even offered to stop smoking with her if it makes it easier, but she told me to smoke on....I'd need it to keep me from loosing my mind catering to her need. I didn't argue ;)
In my state, all babies are drug tested when they are born...and if they come up positive for any drugs, you got some potential serious trouble coming your way.
There have been no conclusive studies on the affects smoking weed has on a child that claims it to be directly harmful. Than again there haven't been many studies done in general.
Teratagons are always something to worry about....you want to be extra careful no matter what.
My best friend smoked her whole pregnancy, and her baby will be a year old on March 4th...and still isn't walking..
Yet I know a few babies YOUNGER than hers that are walking.
Coincidence????

yes we both did and he's shooting up just like a weed he's only 19 months and is 3'6" already and is 33 pounds and he started to hold his bottle by himself at the same time he learnt to sit-up crawl and walk
Some studies have shown low birth weight, and in heavy users there can be other ill effects, but moderate cannabis use seems to not affect fetal development very much. Cigarettes are more harmful than cannabis. In the UK, it's my understanding that women are advised simply to limit alcohol intake as well, not eliminate it entirely - is that true?
I am 15 weeks pregnant and have definitely cut back on my smoking. I don't smoke blunts at all anymore, but I will occasionally hit a pipe especially if I am stressed out.
:)I hope. A daughter would be to nerve racking for my first child. I tend to be a little jealous over my loved ones.Quote:

If I happen to get a girl pregnant and she wants to keep the baby, I wouldn't mind...it seems like a choice for mothers to make.
Yes, I did smoke while I was pregnant. My daughter was 6lb 9oz and 19in long. The only complication I experienced was the umbilical cord was around her neck during childbirth, but that was not caused by weed. Most likely from me putting clothes on a clothesline. (constant reaching above my head)She is now 8 years old and her 2nd grade teacher told me she wished she could clone her. I read a book by Dr. Andrew Weil which stated that marijuana is not as dangerous as caffeine, alcohol, or cigarettes while pregnant, so I did a little research first. I did quit caffeine but also still smoked cigarettes. And my daughter was "jittery" when she was born, but I am certain that was from the cigarettes, not the weed. I say this because a friend of mine's daughter had the same effects, but she did not smoke weed, only cigarettes. And as far as fathers who smoke are more likely to have boys.........I have to disagree. Both of my sisters and their spouse/boyfriend smoke and we all had girls. That is just a timing issue.
As the topic sayes my last pregnacey was horrendous. My marraige was falling apart he was having an affair I knew and he wouldn't admit it...
I couldn't eat, only if I had a toke it stopped me from vomiting. All I can say is I got a beautiful baby boy perfect in every way 'Noah' as it happens his name means Consolation and if anything at that point in time that's exactly what he was.
Before I went in to be induced I rolled myself a five skin smoked it and prepared for the horrible act of childbirth.....It's wonderful to have a child but it is horrendous absolutly the hardest things to bear so far in my life but i did it just about survived it I have three boys Kaelib 8 and Max 7
Love life:hippy:
I would vape or eat it when or if im pregnant. but drinking .. hellll no, we watched a video in health class about fetal alochol syndrom and it was so sad, a lot of the kids had serious mental and psyical problems, and it often wasnt caused by heavy drinking, it doesn't take much alcohol to mess your kid up. I also won't smoke ciggs, I think being pregnant would be the perfect opportunity to finally quit.
