SO GUILTY 😭😭

I found out I was pregnant in October and have been smoking weed for the past few years. in december i completely stopped but I just started again this past month and I have so much guilt about it... My 24 week appt is thursday and I stopped yesterday after a lot of thinking. I feel so horrible and am hoping baby doesn’t get taken from me

There are several hospitals that will drug test mothers at birth, and yes, take the child away upon a positive result of illegal substances. I suppose this particular situation depends on whether or not it is legal in the state you live in though. While I’m sure you will come across stories of moms who said, “I smoked and my baby was fine,” remember that there are no legitimate long term studies of the effect smoking weed will have on your unborn child. To me, my baby’s health and safety come before my own selfish needs. Do I miss having a glass of wine with dinner? Or a good craft beer on the weekend? Absolutely! But I love my unborn daughter more than that. I suppose you need to reflect on your priorities and consider the potential health of your baby over “I’m afraid I’ll get in trouble.”

If you really felt guilty you wouldn't do it anymore 🤷‍♀️ hope your baby is born healthy & your weed isn't laced with anything serious.

I’m 24 weeks and smoke weed, I don’t smoke it all the time by any means, I use it more for health benefits of it, when I had morning sickness so bad it helped, or when I had zero appetite I would smoke a little to help me eat. I tend to smoke a little at night time before bed, it helps me relax and takes away my joint pain, I also have a auto immune disease and have smoked it for that for years, I’m honest with my de about and all he’s said is that there isn’t anything saying it’s good or bad. I feel like if your doing it in moderation and to help symptoms then a little isn’t going to hurt. I always think of things like Tylenol I’m sure it’s just as bad or worse then weed. That’s my feelings tho, :) good luck

Even tho I stopped when becoming pregnant. There are SO many people I know that smoke throughout their whole pregnancy. I personally would just stop right away and just dont do it again. Atleast while your pregnant.

I know someone whose baby was taken from his mother because she smoked weed while pregnant. I know that Oklahoma is pretty strict about it, so make sure that you are a aware of what your state allows or not. Best of luck!

I think you will be fine. Why would they take your baby away? My friend has her three kiddos. She smoked weed with alk three pregnancies!

I know someone that smoked with her three babies and always came up positive at doctors but they didn’t say it was harmful. There’s nothing saying it actually causes harm, because it is an herb 😁
