If your pregnant and you smoke weed does it affect the baby?

Question

I dont smoke weed and i'm not pregnant..but i've gotten several different answers..

Answer 1

Yes, of course. Your baby deals with anything you put into your body..  

Answer 2

Yes it does and anyone who tells you otherwise is blowing smoke, literally.

Answer 3

yes it does i no some1 that smoked weed while she was pregnant and the baby can out addicted to it...

Answer 4

Smoking anything affects the baby.

Answer 5

Yes

Answer 6

Ummmm  Yeah  

Answer 7

yes it does next time you go to your doctors office look at the posters and read all the facts that smoking week causes to a baby. I know alot of people who have smoked weed and baby was okay but i still wouldnt risk it.

Answer 8

if it was safe enough to do pregnant don't you think it would be legal? The chemical in weed stays in your body for up to 3 months after you smoke it even once... that means for those 3 months your baby is still getting it!

Answer 9

I think that anything you put in your body while pregnant has an affect on the baby.

If it has an affect on you, it will have an affect on the baby.  

Answer 10

Yes it does. The "buzz" feeling the person gets who smokes is the same feeling the baby will get. It can stunt growth, cerebal palsy, down's syndrome, ADHD, autism. To name a few.

Weed is a drug even if your friends say it's from the earth.. Every drug is and Every drug is monitored by the FDA.. If you know someone that smokes pot.. tell them this.. they can kill the baby and if the baby is born.. when they do blood tests if the nurses suspect drug use and test the baby they CAN take that baby from the mom!

Answer 11

kind of the baby might be born smaller but thats it the baby will not be born addicted to weed thats bs that only happens with crack and meth if you smoke anything while pregnant it cuts off oxgen so the baby might be smaller but thats it and i read a article where this women smoked weed through out her pregnancy and nothing happened and i think i read a article about this lady who said her baby was iritable and wouldnt eat but thats it and i actually know someone who has 7 kids and smoke througout her pregnancy with 5 of them with medical weed that the doctor prescribed idk why but she had 5 and they are all fine and 2 of them are in the gifted program so i think it would be fine to smoke but i probably wouldnt do it just in case

Answer 12

of course, anything you put in your body will effect the baby somehow.

Answer 13

You've gotten several answers because no one knows the real facts as the government hides them.

Studies done in other countries have shown marijuana to be harmless, and midwives have been suggesting it for severe morning sickness for thousands of years.

It's only been illegal for 60 years, why? So Anslinger could control the borders and major companies (pharmacies, oil, paper) wouldn't get run out of business.

Those who say, why isn't it legal?

Oh yeah, what about the 13 states that have it legal for medical use?

And how many other countries have it legal for personal use? More then you think.

The real reason they don't want you to smoke it is because of the chemicals that COULD be sprayed on it by the grower.

Doctors and pharmacists HAVE suggested it for those with severe morning sickness too.

Answer 14

yes it does i knew a girl that was pregneant with twins that smoked weed and when they were born one was mostly healty and the other had a heart defect.  

Answer 15

Yes, of course it does.  It affects the baby just as much as it affects the person smoking it.  It can also cause long term problems for the baby (and the person who smoke it, really).  It can cause the baby to be born prematurely, have lung and breathing problems, etc.

Answer 16

A simple yes it does

Answer 17

yes YES!
