Keep in mind that marijuana crosses the placenta so your baby is exposed to the substance and may go through drug withdrawls at birth if marijuana is continued through the pregnancy. Babies going through withdrawls are miserable. They can't sleep well, cry almost all the time and cannot be consoled, difficulty eating and maintaining body temperature. Some can even have difficulty breathing during withdrawls. Its not worth the risk or the discomfort to the baby if you can avoid it.

Im 7 weeks and a smoker. I quit cigs when I found out but have been smoking weed. I dont see it as a harm for me or my baby, cuz im simply healthier with it.( been using a vaporizer, less harsh) Morning sickness?.. Yeah I dont get that, I eat great I sleep great and im happy. What could be healthier for a baby than that?

Anything that affects your oxygen intake is going to decrease the oxygen floowing to your baby.. and if you don't want cps involved in your life you should probably quit. Many women smoke cigarettes all the way through and everything goes just fine, it just depends :)

If its something you wouldn't give to a baby or child don't put it in your body with your baby there. I miss my evening beer but none for baby so I just give it up for a while. :)
