I was able to without worry from my ped. She asked me to stay away from edibles and vaping, but she said smoking was fine.

It can effect milk supply in terms of quantity just a heads up

do you mean it can dry you up?

From what I have read, it can stay in your milk anywhere from 6 days to 6 weeks depending upon the person. But there’s also not much research done on this since it is still newly legal in most states

Yes, it theoretically could, but using here and there shouldnt cause any significant issues with overall supply. I drank usually an extra 32oz of water or so and ate a nutrient dense snack (stuffed dates, energy/Oatmeal bites, fruit with peanut butter, etc). Never had any issue.

It absolutely won't dry you up!
As long as you're taking your prenatals and eating good meals, and you should be when breastfeeding, you'll be completely okay, in fact in my experience because cannabis makes me eat more, I'm able to produce more because of it

During the first three months i bf l smoked a handful of times. when I felt high I didn’t feed I would just bottlefeed from what I pumped previously. It’s like drinking when you’re pregnant, you don’t do it too often but you do it in a small dosage, and take care of yourself otherwise and you’ll be fine.
