Is quitting weed cold turkey bad for baby?
Let me start by saying I don't need your opinions on whether or not you agree with my decision to smoke until my morning sickness calmed down. Any negative comments will be deleted. OBVIOUSLY if I thought weed would harm my baby I wouldn't have done it. And OBVIOUSLY I didn't do it for selfish reasons like getting high. I used it for morning sickness ONLY. Anyways, I have been smoking for years and when I found out I was pregnant I quit. I ended up losing 20 pounds in a matter of 2 weeks. I just couldn't keep anything down and even fainted from being way too weak. My OB STILL didn't think I needed meds so I decided I would smoke. It has helped me a lot and I've even gained 5 pounds. My MS stopped around 12-14 weeks and then during week 15 it became outrageous again. I unfortunately lost the 5 pounds I gained. My OB decides it was finally time to get on meds So now I'm 16 weeks and I've got my pills for nausea. I haven't thrown up in almost an entire week! So now I want to quit smoking. Keep in mind I've had to smoke before every meal to be able to eat without puking for most of my pregnancy. I've quit pot several times since I started smoking years ago so ik if I needed to quit cold turkey I could. But I don't want to harm the baby by quitting cold turkey since its been in my system every day. Small amounts obviously but still every day. I'm not at all concerned about CPS because they don't test in my state as its legal medically and recreationally. My OB also said straight out they won't test because word for word "that's the least of our worries". Either way I'm done smoking but should I do it moderately until I can slow down to nothing or just stop cold turkey? I REALLY REALLY want to stop ASAP as I don't need if anymore. I only needed it for my MS which is now being controlled by my new meds. I'm going to repeat...I don't need your negative opinions or "facts". I already feel guilty enough. Advice only!!!
