pregnant and smoking weed is it bad?

Sweetkisses- Look you are obviously intelligent enough to know that there "might" be a chance that marijuana can harm your child, or at least you have a conscience that is sending off red alerts.... Personally I have no children and am not pregnant but I do smoke A LOT and I could never imagine that it would be a good thing for babies. If I were you I would listen to your conscience, it's better to be safe than sorry Wink

I am a mother of two..my eight year old daughter was born first and I was a heavy pot smoker up 'til we found out I was pregnant(7 weeks along)..then I quit 'til after her birth..she was born at a very good weight (7 lbs 12 oz.) but had respiratory problems after birth and even had seizures and a stroke that almost killed her..thank God she is fine today..my six year old son was born second and I unfortunately did not bring myself to stop smoking at all during the whole of the pregnancy..he was born at a good weight too (7 lbs 11 oz.) but we noticed right away the difference..while my daughter had very good sleeping and eating patterns, he did not..he was very irritable and cried almost constantly..he was fussy all the time, did not want to sleep and was difficult to feed and burp..while my daughter slept her nights at just 1 month of age my son still did not at 1 and a half year of age..there was a clear cut difference...I smoked for two months for my daughter and was seven months clean before her birth and still saw consequences although much milder than for my son whom I consumed daily 'til the day of his birth..I am now six months pregnant with my third (a boy again!!) and this time things are different..I've been good all the way and have been for a while since before conceiving..my opinion..don't do it while pregnant...it is only nine months and true that the money is useful elsewhere..this is a mother's first chance to make good decisions for her child..don't start off on the wrong foot..
