Lol madness at its finest. Ladies don't stress yourselves out cause a mother to be is making her own choice in suffocating her own baby, she may regret it or may not at the end, but to each their own.

Stop fighting ! This lady hasnt answered I think Im right, she was high when she wrote this and she is probably somewhere still high and will see this tomorrow and be confused.

I cant get angry when a person who chooses to make their own bed, a the end of the day she has to lay in it.

Everything OctoberMommy is saying is true. Even IF the drug itself didnt effect the baby, you are restricting oxygen and blood flow to your developing child. Which he or she needs desperately to develop and live.

And also, pot makes you hyper focus on things you normaly don't, which means no. Your baby is not moving more because you're getting stoned off your rocker and he or she likes or hates it, you are just focusing more on the movements.

Its unlikely the baby is feeling ANY effect, but with depriving him of oxygen and blood, I'd think about what you're doing. Sure baby may come out just fine, but do you really want to risk that 1 in however many babies effected by drug use be YOUR baby?! Selfish.
