risky to smoke while nursing?

[daima]

The THC is stored in your fat cells, therefore you can't do the whole "pump and dump" thing... alcohol does not stay stored in your body for long, so it's a whole different story. In my opinion, as a Mom, and a pothead, it's not worth the risks of your friend doing it. She cares enough about her baby to actually breastfeed, and she breastfeeds because it's "best". So why jeopardize that?

The fact remains that there is no proof, or science that a cannabis using mother who breast feeds is jeopardizing herself or the baby. Lets keep fear and drugwar rhetoric out of her life. Her hands are full enough. The science suggest that she or the baby do not face harm. The proof is in the science and the number of babies who are just fine. Marijuana myths cause the harm and anxiety. Alcohol causes deformities. Cannabis doesnt. I agree with the Dean at the SCHOOL OF NURSING. gee whiz, what the hell does she know? lmao
She knows the truth, and the science and statistics back her up.
I am probably older than most here and this is what we have been told for decades.
One marijuana cigarette can lead to death(not true)
Those who smoke pot go crazy and kill their parents(not true)
Those who use pot are lazy (right? tell that to the thousands of actors, musicians, carpenters, scientists,computer programmers, presidents, judges etc etc)
Those who use pot will die within 5 years(never happened)
Those who use pot become heroin addicts(not true)
Those who use pot will cause babies to be born dead(never happened)
Our clinics will be full of cannabis users who suffer from lung cancer due to within 30 years( never happened)
Science and statistics defy these claims.
To the cannabis using parent who breast feeds, or is pregnant? take a toke if you desire and enjoy yourself.
Pump and dump? oh my!! how scarey! how well rehearsed!! lmao:dance:
My advice? stick with the facts and not the hype.:thumbsup:

I was wondering if anyone knows if it would even be that big of a deal. Her baby is 8 months now and is eating food too, so I dont see how one or two little hits would be anything to worry about. Thats all she would need since she hasnt been able to do anything for 1 & a half years! For some reason she is more comfortable drinking than smoking...:confused: Any thoughts??..Thanks ;) Rating: 5
