      My “friend” 🥴 couldn’t even eat during the first trimester of pregnancy. “She” couldn’t keep any food down for more than a few minutes. Baby and mom were getting 0 nutrients bc she was pretty much not eating anything. Couldn’t even finish a small bowl a grapes before it came back up. It was almost redundant to eat anything, the nausea made it to where she was basically starving. Nothing and I mean NOTHING would stay down long enough to be digested. She tried 2 different anti nausea medications prescribed by OB, nothing helped. Nothing except a little mj. Literally just 1-2 drags in the morning, like the momma in the video, and it made things so much better. No food being wasted, and I say wasted because she couldn’t even finish her food before it came back up. She had to keep a bucket nearby if she was going to “eat” because it ALWAYS came back. Shopping for food was basically shopping for the next thing To throw up. She and baby were pretty much starving. Couldn’t even take prenatals for extra nutrients because of course, it makes you puke if taken on an empty stomach. But her stomach was almost always empty because she couldn’t eat anything. And it caused her excess stress knowing that her and baby were basically starving all because of her nausea. But again, 1-2 puffs was all she needed to have an appetite and a full belly all day. She was able to successfully quit at the start of her second trimester because “morning” sickness usually subsides by that point. She used it purely out of necessity for her and baby and stopped as soon as she physically could. She would’ve likely lost the baby due to the dehydration, starvation and overall stress, or would’ve had to terminate the pregnancy for those reasons. Thanks to mj though, she was able to successfully and naturally have a healthy baby. She felt guilty hence why she quit as soon as she could, but it was all that worked. She was done trying mystery pills from the doctor and wasting time. Mother Nature of course provided all she needed in one little green flower.

    All u saying she wrong are so uneducated. My daughters mother and i were told directly by our obstetrician and her doctors that marijuana was ok and actually very good for her and the baby. She cut, alcohol and cigs soon as we found out she was pregnant, the weed helped her nausea and her appetite and general mood, furthermore the doctor expressed the positives cannabis provided to the baby. 18 years later, my daughter is smart asf, off the charts, very intelligent, forward thinking, outgoing, she is the greatness of her mother and i, she is so astute and analytical, we played music in the womb, like my kid is truly the best of us and i know for a fact marijuana/cannabis while in the womb and even me just smoking in the house has helped her develop in to a very smart and well rounded young lady. Marijuana/Cannabis helps the world n humans in all aspects. Stop the lies becuz ur uneducated.

      No there isn’t. I come from a long line of stoners and my mom had extreme sickness with my third youngest brother. She smoked second trimester on. He was born with asthma and was underweight Well he’s 21 now. I cannot say 100% certain that this is a direct cause from smoking pot while pregnant, BUT, out of all SEVEN of us kids, HE was the only one who has Asperger’s and ADHD. He also smokes an incredible amount of marijuana unlike the rest of us. I mean one gram infused joints ten times a day. So that’s just ten grams a day on flower alone. 70gs a week. Not calculating the infused and keef outsides.
      I also know moms who have smoked with every pregnancy and their kids are OK but you don’t know the long term affects because it’s unethical to do research that way.

      Pot is a psychoactive substance. It alters brain function and in a developing embryo that could result in mental issues. Trust me, my mother smoked pot when I was in the womb, and I'm paying the price for it now.
      I'm not saying pot is bad, but taking any psychoactive substance while pregnant probably isn't a good idea.
      let's not act like pot is a miracle substance that has only benefits with no downsides. This is bullshit. Research has shown that pot use has a strong link with psychosis, social anxiety disorders, and is overall not good for mental health or cognitive functioning. If you're of age, go for it, but developing brains, especially baby brains, should be allowed to develop properly before being altered by drugs.
      I dont think anyone would argue drinking while pregnant is good. Why is smoking? Regardless of its effects, it's psychoactive and your babies development is absolutely being affected in some way.
      P.S most pharmaceutical drugs aren't psychoactive, so the point abut them affecting the babies health is irrelevant. Let's not pretend we know more than the doctors. They simply wouldn't perscribe any drugs if they thought it would be unhealthy. Sure, doctors make mistakes, but believe it or not, when it comes to drugs, anatomy, and biology, they're correct far more often than you.

    Story time guys. My mother smoked weed while pregnant with me and these are the notable traits it may have given me: I had horrible ADHD, growing up my body was exploding with a fiery energy which wouldn't end until I got adrenaline or put myself in a dangerous situation, I never had any regard for my own safety. I would hurl myself off of heights and jump off stairs. If we were near a body of water I was climbing a tree or a roof to jump off. I would run through peoples backyards and get chased by dogs, I was absolutely crazy. I think I've broken about 10 bones overall, I have screws and plates in my lower back and left arm, multiple fractured ankles, wrists and fingers. I almost lost an eye. I think it's a miracle that I'm still able bodied.
    I loved games like every other kid but I was able to REALLY immerse myself into it, the most intense escapism. I was great at sports and I was very fit and agile. My vision is absolutely incredible even at 35 years old, I can read things from afar very well. I started smoking weed when I was about 16 and it was the most relaxed I had ever felt, like my brain had been standing up for 16 whole years and it finally got to take a seat. I never stopped smoking and I never needed meds again. My lungs are very good.
    So overall my body is ageing well and I am healthy but if i never found cannabis I don't think I'd be alive. Make of this what you will.

The medicine they prescribed wasn’t working and made me throw up more. I couldn’t even drink water, I’d throw it up 2 minutes after drinking it. I was 120 pounds before pregnancy and was 116 at 30 weeks. My baby was born 5 pounds. Very tiny bc I never could eat. The only thing that stopped the nausea was weed. I never smoked out of cigar or paper. I used a bong with clean water every time. She is now 5 months old. Healthy, she’s got her shots and she’s already advancing. I wanted to have another baby in a few years but they say there’s a 90% chance of getting HG after the first time. I have anxiety and PTSD from the entire pregnancy. I thought to myself “ it’s not too late to terminate.” I felt so guilty😭. I’m scared to get pregnant again bc of HG but I want just one more baby.

    Completely depends on how you look at it I suppose but I had HG for the first four months, I was in and out of hospital for dehydration and chose just to suffer through it rather than risking any injury to my little girl. They gave me the lowest dose of the least risky anti sickness which I took for three days and then stopped out of fear she’d have cleft lip/palette. I completely understand not wanting to suffer through your pregnancy and there’s always the risk of the child being malnourished if you can’t keep any food or drink down but surely the potential side effects of smoking would also make you worry so much? I’m in between thinking it’s selfish and it’s not. Medication prescribed by doctors does indeed have their own side effects like weed would and if you’re suffering that bad… I just don’t know. I personally couldn’t justify any treatment that could potentially harm my baby I just thought “it’s not forever I’ll just grin and bear it for now” but tbh you’d probably do more harm not being able to eat and drink the whole pregnancy than smoking. It’s a tough one!
