I have a pretty serious question...and I'm sure the only mommies out there that are going to understand is the ones who's smoked marijuana before or maybe during their pregnancy..I've smoked marijuana Since I was 16 and I completely quit cold turkey when I found out I was prego with my little bug(my baby), I'm now 15 weeks and still haven't smoked...But I'm really wanting to, and advice out there from any mom's that's going through the same thing???! would it be okay to smoke one time...or hitting it from a pipe or anything in that nature...please help I really wanna know. how bad or dangerous is it really if I do smoke some marijuana here and there??
you don't know how bad I'm missing it...and yes my baby is very important to me which is why I quit cold turkey for 3 months now..and which is why I'm looking for so real one on one answers..it's hard to talk to someone about this That's either never smoked before nor definitely smoke while prego
Wow that's good to hear...I just wanted to do it at least every once in awhile here and there...
so maybe do it one time after my doctor visits until I'm at at least 6 months then stop completely..
I feel you girl, I'm 20 and 7months preggers and I've smoked since I was 15. as long as you tell your doctor and be upfront about it, you should be okay cps wise. as far as the health of your baby , I've smoked here and there about every week and my baby is an extremely healthy Baby girl. as long as you stick to clean smoking , like bubblers, bongs, and pipes, you should be good . (if.you smoke blunts it's bad because of the tobacco and it.may give you bad.congestion when you have morning sickness) Just don't test.positive when the baby is born, so make sure you stop a month or so in advance.
I know of girls that smoked and tested positive when they went to have the baby. CPS got involved and the mother couldn't leave the hospital with her baby. then the state pick up charges. I mean its totally your call. good luck in whatever yu decide hun.
I smoked in my 1st trimester to help with my nausea
Yes just remember moderation and you'll be fine and if you decide to remember to stop around 6 months so yours and baby's system is clean better safe than sorry. yes I had chronic morning sickness and horrible back pain and smoking a bowl throughout the day helped so much.
that's sooo good to hear..because I would never want to intentionally harm my baby in any way, but these headaches are going to kill me and I've been taking whatever my doctor prescribed me but its just not working...it's very irritating. it makes me sick to my stomach.
yeah a lot of ppl are against it but if smoked a little here and there its fine. my mom smoked everyday with me.until I was born and I hit.milestones quicker than most babies. but it helps more than any medicine a Dr will prescribe you and now most states its legal and drs in those states will encourage women to smoker if they were smokers before pregnant
this is all very helpful because I'm sooooo sceptical about hitting my pipe here and there...and I just need answers, when I ask my mom of course she gets a lil angry and straight up tells me not to and it bad etc...But she never smoked weed like I have and especially not when she was pregnant with me
see I thought drinking coffee would be super harmful @theirmommy_2 I completely stopped smoking weed stop drinking anything with caffeine in...I use to smoke cigarettes but I'm definitely staying away from that lol but I feel extra bad when I drink a damn Dr pepper once a week or maybe 2 lol
he was my first and smoking a little a day won't hurt the baby. I feel the pipe is the best option cause there are chemicals in blunt paper with a pipe you aren't getting any extra stuff besides the weed but I know.ppl who smoked half a blunt and everything was fine.
I'm just nervous because this is my first pregnancy...and I don't want to screw it up just because I need to smoke a lil here and there...@wyatts_mommy_0106, is it better to smoke from a pipe or can you smoke blunts...like half a blunt and maybe half the next day
one bowl a day wont hurt, but if you have headaches i would say drink a coke or a coffe every morning, but yeah i dont smoke anymore only if i have a headache or i feel like shit
I smoked all throughout my last pregnancy and this one. Never had any issues. I would rather smoke for my problems that take a pill that could potentially harm my baby. if you want to smoke then smoke.
yeah I definitely don't want social services involved...I'm not sure if she's drug testing me every time I go in or not...I take my annual pee test every time I go in...But I think that's for to see if there's any infection or things like that...
One of the problems with marijuana is that because it's been classified as an illegal narcotic for so long there are not a lot of reliable studies on its affects during pregnancy. While it contains fewer carcinogens than smoked tobacco, you're still inhaling burning material, which is proven to be harmful during pregnancy regardless of what's burning. Lots of people have smoked weed during pregnancy and had babies that were perfectly healthy. But then, lots of people smoked cigarettes, drank alcohol, or used other drugs that we know are harmful and got lucky with totally healthy pregnancies. To me it's probably not worth it, but I've also stopped eating rare meat and all the other weird stuff they tell you to avoid, because if something were to happen I'd rather know for sure it was absolutely nothing I did. You also probably want to look into your OBs drug screening policies and what the ramifications are in your state if you were to pop positive on a screen while pregnant. Some states don't care much if it's weed, others will notify CPS immediately on any positive screening. Sorry, that was super long and maybe not very helpful. At the end of the day, it's your body, your pregnancy, your baby, and your choice.
I smoked until I was 14 weeks, every day. I also drank until I was 11 weeks. I drank very heavily until I found out I was pregnant at 6-7 weeks along, and then I had to wean myself & baby off of it (what the doc said to do) . as long as you stop a few months before your baby is born, you should be fine!
and yeah I'm sure my doctor will drug test me. I have a doctor's appointment coming up on the 25th and then she doesn't see me for another 4 weeks
I'm just under a lot of stress..I literally have headaches EVERYDAY...and I smoked when I was like 6 weeks, but now that I'm further along I just wanted to make sure that it would be okay...coming from mom's that do smoke while pregnant..
The thing is, if you test positive it can cause problems because social services get involved.
I smoked until I was 6 months pregnant I smoke 1 bowl throughout the day and my son was healthy as can be. There is no medical evidence it harms or helps a unborn baby. its your choice there is nothing wrong with a few hits in my opinion. most hospitals if weed is illegal they will drug test you and baby that's why I stopped at 6 months. my Dr knew I did and never put I popped positive for it cause I was honest with him my first appointment
I did it iny first trimester but my midwife started drug testing me so I stopped .it doesn't harm the baby but if its in your system when u give birth they may open a defax case. since marijuana is considered illegal.IF u stop a fee months ahead you'll be good but I smoked everyday so I had to stop
well there is nothing bad, ima be honest i have done it a few times just because i wanted to. go for it
Motherhood ripped from me again...
I went for my Anatomy Scan on Friday @ 20wks. I went in expecting to find out if my baby is a boy or girl, but came out feeling like I'm going to die.
I am FREAKING out. I told my therapist I smoke marijuana to help with morning sickness, and she reported me to her supervisor. They referred me to their drug clinic on the 11th, and I'm so nervous because when they drug test me and if it's positive, I already have an ACS case and they will report me to my worker. My friend suggested Niacin, 500mg twice a day for two weeks, but I'm nervous if it's safe for the baby. I'm going to drink a gallon of water a day and try to ingest vinegar....ladies I'...
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
ok serious question, can I get high off the smell of weed... I'm freaking out my man smokes in the bathroom but it never aired out and I went to take a bath it still smelled heavily. I'm freaking out I don't wanna test positive when I haven't smoked it 😨😨😨😨😢
I pretty much lied when my doctor asked if I've ever smoked weed before just because it made me nervous and threw me off a bit
