CBD during pregnancy to help sleep?

Question

Does anyone know the effects of CBD during pregnancy? I’m still doing my research and haven’t asked my doctor yet, which will be done at my next appointment. The reason for asking is to help aid in sleep... I want to avoid pharmaceuticals as much as possible. From what I’ve read, melatonin is fine during pregnancy for short term use. I’m looking for something more natural to help for the duration of my pregnancy, so any suggestions other than CBD are welcomed!

Answer

Everything I have that has CBD in it says not to use if pregnant or breastfeeding.

Answer

No one really knows the effects because it's not federally legal. Hard to get federal funding for research on a substance that it's illegal to use. The only things we know is it crosses over to the baby in utero and you don't really know how good of quality you buy because like with vitamin supplements, it's not regulated even in states where marijuana is legal.

Answer

Please avoid. I’ve seen neurological deficits because of use of those type of products. I work in special ed. Avoid drugs, tobacco, alcohol and related products along with good prenatal care is crucial.

Answer

Melatonin is natural (it’s just adding to what your body naturally produces) and my doctor said I can take 3 mg my entire pregnancy which I’ve done and I’m 31 weeks, baby is great! Tylenol PM is also safe but not natural like melatonin. I believe there’s been more extensive studies for melatonin than CBD but definitely ask your doctor, they might have some better ideas.

Answer

I used CBD for depression and anxiety my last pregnancy. My doctor even said the risks are low. Major concern is low birth weight. But there’s still not much research but there also isn’t on a lot of drugs out there. It’s a natural thing. I say your fine!

Answer

They usually prescribe unisom if you ask for it
