It's obviously still a possibility, even though slim. AND, she knows her body, if she feels she may be...she would know.

Were your tests at the Dr. pee tests? Or blood tests?

i was not saying that she isnt pregnant. i was trying to make her feel a little better by saying that three days is not very late. and some pregnancy tests can tell before you even miss your period. i have been in her situation before and i was almost sure that i was pregnant even though the test was negative but it turned ot that i was just realy late cuz i was getting a little older and my cycle was changing. i wish her all the best no matter what the outcome is. oh and have you found out yet reInform???

I just had a test today on this!!

The possibilities are...

Miscarriage/Still birth
Postnatal death
Premature/low birth weight
Small head
developmental abnormalities
joint, heart, and ear abnomalities
tremors at birth
neurological problems
seizures that may require medication
abnormal visual responses

The same effects can happen through breast mill just as easily.

*How ever, we all know that most all of those things on that list are possibilities whether you smoke or not. How much they increase the risks? I couldn't tell you.

i bet if you vape a bunch your kid will be a genius. plus if you're calm and relaxed through the pregnancy your kid probably will be too right? theres obviously nothing scientific about that. just an idea

I would have to agree that the THC isn't bad (have 2 kids) but the smoke is worse than cigarettes since it's unfiltered. Now a vaporizer would be the way to go. The first 15 days probably won't make a difference for you now though, but in later developmental stages the carcinogins in the smoke will have a definitely detrimental affect.

I smoked pot when I was pg. Not a lot, but I did smoke, had a 20" 7lb 8oz baby boy that is now 38 yrs old, 6'2", big guy and smart too. Then I had a 9 pound baby girl and she is awesome. Hope this helps.

I may have already commented on this: I think smoking pot while pregnant is irresponsible. Is really worth even a small risk that damage could be done to your kid? Anyone who does not consider this is not fit to be a parent and should just abort. It is a totally selfish act. Never fuck with your kids well-being.

I'm not sure if this was brought up, but recently I seen an article from Yahoo about a mother who was arrested because her newborn had traces of thc in his blood.

i recently went six months without having my period. the last month or two of it, i woke up every morning with insane nausea and really strange cramping, and i was freaking out horribly because of it. i don't even know how many tests i took, but although they all came out negative i was pretty positive i was pregnant. things just felt..... different. then about a month ago i started spotting for a few days... which has never happened before. then a week later i got my period and it was really heavy for two weeks straight. i'm not really not sure what happened, but i don't even want to know for sure.

but anyway, are you or are you not pregnant?

^she hasn't been at this site since march...

Schism · 03-26-2010, 07:56 PM

iv had this conversation many time recently with several friends who have recently become pregnant. There is not much research on the subject and there most likely never will be in this country. The fact that there is not much research is just more more reason not to do it IMO. There could be unknown risks that would not be worth it no matter how small. People stop smoking all the time for many reasons. Probation, work, ect. For gods sake dont take the chance with the thing thats most important!

Thats a pretty cool story.

bubbler211 · 03-28-2010, 07:07 PM

they quick answer from me is taken from real life. I have known many chicks down through the years some smoked more than others most drank liquor,smoke cigs and smoked weed. I havent run across anybody whose child was born with problems
no need to get upset by this its just the way life works out for the chicks i have known

Mikey · 03-28-2010, 10:03 PM

there's been alot of studies of Jamaican women who have smoked cannabis throughout they're pregnancies and they're babies turned out fine. google it and check out erowid.

but to each their own everybody is different.

**AlteredStateGrl** · 03-29-2010, 08:26 AM

^ Yeah, it was mentioned in post #5 of this very thread.
