Conflicted about smoking
I’m 10w pregnant and am very very down, I have zero motivation to do anything and it’s severely cut into my ability to work/clean/ even do things for myself like shower and brush my teeth. I’ve struggled with anxiety and depression in the past few years and always relied on weed to get me thru the days. I’m not a very heavy smoker, one or two joints could last me a week. I’ve even been known to make 3.5 stretch a month. I stopped smoking when I found out I was pregnant but I just don’t feel like myself and I don’t think I can continue on like this. I want to try smoking again and see if that has any improvements. I definitely don’t want to try antidepressants, and anti anxiety medication, I’ve been against that my whole life and I don’t want to change that now. There are so many conflicting reports and not even solid case evidence of the effects weed has on babies. Anyone got any advice besides telling me to go to therapy? 😭 I’m already trying that.

Hey girl , keep smoking weed if it helps you I smoked my whole
Pregnancy and had a healthy almost 9 pound baby at 37 weeks
If it helps at this point, it’s better for you to be healthier and feeling like you can accomplish and do things - do it. Society’s Plant is a resource I used to research effects as they’re isn’t a bunch available due to schedule 1 status.
Your baby is going to need you at your best! I’d say a toke here or there isn’t going to be an issue. I smoked my entire pregnancy and I have a beautiful baby girl. Biggest advice id say is stay away from tobacco products! No blunts.
