Smoking pot rolled in blunt wraps while pregnant

I think people should be sterilized at birth then given some sort of evaluation when they turn 18 to see if there smart enough to procreate.

Interesting. Even the most dim-witted people I know from high school seem to have the "procreation" bit pretty much figured out -- it must be like riding a bike. Dealing with the consequences, however...

Never ceases to amaze me the amount of fuckwits I know from high school who are now effectively pissing in the gene pool by having kids.

My layperson's opinion is that obviously, no smoking at all during pregnancy is the best option. Smoking sporadically might not have an effect, but why take the risk?

I guess my perspective is a bit skewed since I've seen worse (e.g. women IVing H or crystal meth when pregnant. Not good :/ )

So my girlfriend stopped smoking cigarettes about two weeks after finding out she was pregnant. When she found out she was pregnant she stopped smoking pot. We had a little rough patch (We weren't on good terms for about a month). But after mending things with her we are hanging out and she tells me she's been smoking pot. Now that wasn't really too alarming but I didn't really think it was a great idea. I don't want to debate if you can smoke pot while your pregnant my question is she thought that the blunt wraps (like royal blunt wraps and the zig zag ones) were made from some sort of plant material like I have no idea what she thought it was like cellulose or something. So after researching I come to find out that the blunt wraps are made into paper from tobacco pulp. I assume my girlfriend is at risk but I'm not really sure what are your guys thoughts?

Poor kid :(
 
Just putting this out there. Somethings cant cross through the placenta, its one of the ways the body protects the child. Those that can are called teratogens. I'm not sure if THC is capable of crossing, alot of things are not. Thats not to say things like carbon monoxide and all the other products of combustion cant because alot will.

Just some food for thought, not everything actually enters the fetus. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teratology
 
What is really scary is that even if it is harmless, and they test the newborn, and find thc in the babies system, you are gonna have alot of trouble with CPS (child protective service). If she is nauseous, have her eat several small meals throughout the day. Avoid nicotine as this makes nausea worse. I have four children, and know a little about pregnancy! Hope this helps.

I shoulda said procreate responsibly
 
Don't smoke pot or use any drugs if you're pregnant. I know heroin and opiate addicts who completely stopped using once they found out they were pregnant or before they got pregnant and the OP's friend is complaining about how she can't smoke a little herb?

nonononononono. Don't screw up a childs life because you can't break from weed for nine months. Not much research or evidence has been done but from what articles I have read weed during pregnancy can hamper the growth of a child and fuck up their nervous system.
If you can't wean yourself off of drugs then don't get pregnant until you can. This is a terrible idea, try to make your girlfriend stop at all costs.

Here are some articles to read about to do with smoking weed while pregnant:

THis man speaks sense - don't listen to anyone else.

If she has a ganja habit this bad that she needs to question why she is addicted to it in the first place, and ask for your and everyone close to her's help in keeping that in check, for the sake of her unborn child.
 
Please don't encourage it. Smoke outside as not to tempt her. Look I have had two live kids and one still born lil angel^^olivia^^and my first I did smoke as I did not know I was prego until almost five months into pregnancy. I however quit as soon as I was aware.
With that being said, my first born was a healthy huge baby boy. Weighed in a 9lbs9oz and only 20 inches long. I still smoked under ten ciggs a day through the whole preg. Bad choice I know but i/my son were lucky.
Now, my daughter was differ. I quit both when we decided to try for another. Unfortunatley she passed in the 22w of preg. Third preg. Another lil girl. I quit also before concieving her. Her outcome was not great either. She was born 14weeks premature. She was a micro-preemie, prognosis was very bleak and we were told to pull the plug if you will. We said NO F'in way. We had just lost one two years back and I would be gosh darned if I was to have this ones death on my hands. She was only 1lb7oz. And barely clung to life. Fast forward 8 years, she is a beautiful bubbly lil girl. However she is dx w/l hemi cp, adhd, severe depression, catastophic thinking w/ocd(will alter her behavior due to fears). You just never know what can happen. In a preg. And if this had happened to me with my fb son(I smoked w/him) I would have so blamed myself. Please help her to make healthy choices for its not just her body, it your babies womb, and your baby in there.
