re: SMOKING WEED WHILE PREGNANT..

Quoting Xyn:“ Is it really that bad for your baby? (I don't smoke, but i need honest opinions) and if you have facts ... [snip!] ... post, could you link me the site you got them from? I just really want to hear your thoughts about this. It's a personal issue.”

im not to sure if its "Bad" for your baby, i just know i wouldnt do it. i know a lot of people that have, that have healthy normal babies, but its something i wouldnt chose to do, while pregnant, or after

In my opinion, smoking weed while pregnant is better for your baby than the stress. I did once when I got in a huge fight with my fiance. But that was the only time I thought it would be okay. And I was bawling my eyes out for two hours first. It was just the fastest way to chill out. I don't think it's okay unless it's a dire situation. You can hold off until after you give birth.

heres a good website to look at.

Is it possible that American women didn't know how to use marijuana intelligently? Did you find that Jamaican women had more ganja wisdom?

American drug use often takes place without cultural rules and in an unsupervised context. The Jamaican women we studied had been educated in a cultural tradition of using marijuana as a medicine. They prepared it with teas, milk and spices, and thought of it as a preventive and curative substance. Smoking it during pregnancy was a way of relieving nausea, increasing appetites, combatting fatigue and depression, providing rest and relaxation. Some of these women were in dire socioeconomic straits, and they found that smoking ganja helped allay feelings of worry and depression about their financial situation.

Our testing showed that the children of women who used ganja had better alertness, stability and adjustment than children of women who didn't use ganja. This was measured at the age of one month. We measured children again at four years and at five years of age, and found that there were no apparent deficits in the children of marijuana-using mothers. In fact, in many ways, they were better off than children of non-smoking mothers. The ganja-using mothers also seemed better off than non-users.
