I was told it transmits through your milk so I never did. I waited until I stopped breastfeeding to smoke again. I didn’t want to take any risk of my son testing positive or anything for thc and then getting cps and everything involved.

^ I was told there is no need to pump and dump it’s a myth. The amount transferred is so minimal. Just like drinking pumping and dumping is no longer recommended I had multiple location consultants and drs tell me the samething. My obgyn was not concerned I wanted to smoke after pregnancy and breastfeed. I was open and honest and he told me that the worst it is going to do is give my baby more of an appetite… which helped tremendously with him latching he was ready to eat each time. I had to switch to formula because I did see a drop in supply once I started smoking. I also wouldn’t smoke much. Literally half a bowl and I was toasted and that would be it for the night. The only time my child was awake after smoking was the middle of the night feed, so I wasn’t handling him much high and by the night feed I was no longer high. Like I said he’d latch eat and go right back to sleep no issues. Everyone is different. Every baby is also different.

I waited a few months for my own piece of mind after having him before smoking again, but that’s what I did ^.

I did it 🤷🏻‍♀️ still doing it. Been breastfeeding for almost 4 years now

I stopped breastfeeding because I wanted to smoke. I feared it transferring to the baby thru the breast milk. I fed my daughter for 3 months and my son for 5 before I started again. My son is 8 months so I just started again since quitting during pregnancy.

I do it. My baby is fine.
