Drugs And Babys

It's very very irresponsible of you to smoke pot whilst pregnant. Your baby 'lives off' you and whatever you take into your body affects your baby & cannabis is known to have an affect on the unborn child.Your boyfriend shouldnt be smoking it either around you because passive smoking is no better.I dont know anything specifically about the long term affects it has on the baby but i'd suggest you stop it right away if you care enough

Im with liz and you dont seem very mature or gown up based on your typing either

Thats very wrong to smoke pot when ur pregnant.
Thats very irresponsible about u doing this. U should know better than to do that to an unborn child.

- research has shown that babies born to mothers who took cannabis while they were pregnant go on to experience problems with physical activity,
- in addition, as for tobacco smokers, a daily use of marijuana exposes the foetus to carcinogens produced by burning marijuana and carbon monoxide which has been shown to affect the health of the foetus,
- researchers said the findings were in line with previous studies indicating cannabis taken during pregnancy affected the cognitive development of the unborn child, particularly memory,
- according to a study published in the british journal of obstetrics and gynaecology, babies born to women who frequently use cannabis while pregnant are smaller in size - a marker that often indicates a damaging effect on the unborn child,

All I can say is

I agree... Smoking pot while pregnant is the stupidest most selfish thing i've ever heard of.

Im 15 too.. I've smoked pot before*not while pregnant of course!* and I still dont see what everyone's fascination is with it.. I think its dumb.. It makes you look dumb..

Ok im not smoking any more! And how was I to know that I had conceived that day ok thats the day I got pregnant ok so pleas get off my back I aint done any drugs sense I found out ok

As long as your not doing it anymore, its good.

You couldnt have known so when you did do it, you cant hold that against yourself.

Just stay clean from now on, and things will be fine.

When I was preg ion 2002 I smoked and drank but I didnt kno I was preg but I never carrted out the pregnancy so I really dont know if my baby would of been "odd"an the babys daddy was a pot smoker and did acid and caca like that so I really cant help ya but hope every thing goes ok

at least you stopped.

marijauna use-------your newborn can experience mild withdrawal and some nervous system effects. And the toxic effects of pre-natal marijuana exposure is the gift that keeps on giving. Effects are often not readily apparent in newborns. Still, psychologists who have studied these babies have found neurological delays. Likewise, few negative effects are apparent between the ages of 1 and 3. But a woman shouldn't be fooled if she has heard of a study where the very young kids show no ill effects. Pre-natal marijuana exposure effects what are called "higher cognitive functions" which don't express themselves until later. At four years old, decreases in verbal ability and memory can be found in those kid exposed to pre-natal marijuana use. At ages 5 and 6, more problems with attention span are found. Needless to say, none of this sets the kid up for a great experience in grade school. At ages 9-12, the same problems persist and compound. Pre-natally exposed to marijuana kids have lower impulse control, don't do as well on certain types of analysis and reasoning tasks, and have lower reading and language skills.
Dont do drugs while pregnant bottom line!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats abuse to an unborn child!!!!!!!!

pregnant women who take ecstasy may be at greater risk of having abies with birth defects such as congenital heart disease and other abnormalities.

Your baby can blame you for that caca.
