Will all be good lovely I was smoking up until I found out I was pregnant and also smoked now and then while pregnant and everything was fine. I even had a tattoo done on my back not knowing I was pregnant at the time, so many women smoke and drink not knowing there pregnant xx
whole heartedly i am a pot head i’ll admit and i got asthma, but been smoking since i was 19, woods, blunts, joints, bowls, everything but a pipe if you feel what im saying lol anyway i slowly stopped at 2 months and then completely at 5 months well before 20 weeks i was done. i was so scared they was gonna check my urine or drug test me at delivery but they don’t do it if you don’t give them a reason to, like don’t go to the appointment smelling like weed i guess and it won’t raise any flags, after my baby was born in february i probably started smoking on day 3 of him being home and i breast feed and he is normal so far, im a first time mom and i don’t like comparing kids but at this moment at 3 months he is not showing signs of autism or any type of delay in any development area, he just nosey and very alert but he’s learning every day so i think that’s normal (also after i smoke and the baby crying i just wash my hands/lips before grabbing him)
Your baby is fine! I smoked for the first 14 weeks of my 3rd pregnancy because I had HG and my doctor was refusing to prescribe me anti nausea meds, I had already lost 15 pounds and had a previous loss 4 months before this pregnancy (also due to medical negligence 🫠) promised myself that I would do whatever I needed to make sure we didn’t lose this baby. So I picked smoking back up, it helped. I started to eat slowly again, I still couldn’t get full without being sick but I could eat an enough to stop losing weight I just also wasn’t gaining it. Once the HG thankfully quit at 14 weeks I also quit smoking, my son was born a healthy 7.5 pounds at 39 weeks. He’s now a super happy 15 pound 27 inch long 6 month old. He tall as hell. His hitting all his development milestones early by just a little bit and sleeps through the night perfectly. I promise yall gonna be fine! I smoked with my daughter and she’s a straight up GENIUS. Developmentally insane progress with her always has been.
@Teasia depends on the hospital. My first baby’s hospital tested upon arrival regardless, but they only tested baby if mom tested positive for anything. I stopped smoking around 6-7 months and was clean at delivery so they didn’t test my baby
@Taryn see this what i was scared of, thank you for clarifying that. I would of burn that hospital down if they try to take my precious but i do understand the safety concerns of it
your baby will be okay! i was smoking a lottt when i conceived/before finding out. she was totally fine
Two beautiful healthy babies. The only thing I can even say about smoking while pregnant is that my 2nd had some low blood sugar when he wAs born and had to be monitored every 2 hours or something like that. He's fine though, was just a sleepy newborn and didn't want to eat much. Otherwise, both my babes are 100% healthy. Both are above average in their development physically and mentally so I cannot say smoking had any affect on my kids other than making me have a less stressful pregnancy and able to eat lol
I am 27 weeks pregnant and I been smoke all throw out my pregnancy and I live in INDIANA
1. Depends on doctor & hospital 2. Health: You & baby will be fine. 3. I really suggest stopping a couple weeks to the last month of pregnancy so that baby and mom systems are clean upon delivery
Yes your baby will be just fine!!! There are sooo many canna babies and the chance of something happening is soooo low! The stress of wondering if something is going to happen to your baby is 10x worse on the baby than the smoking! You and your baby will be just fine! Now I’m not saying smoke all day every day but a few times a day - like 2, 3 times - is not going to hurt, check out the Jamaican study about moms who smoked and how amazing the babies are from there ❤️
@Brijanae yes I forgot to mention definitely stop or slow wayyyy down 4 weeks (maybe 5.5) before the baby is born. But that being said I wish I would have stopped a little earlier as I was positive at birth but my baby was clean thankfully. Nothing happened. Not even a CPS visit.
Yeah I did the whole time
You’ll be completely fine and so will your baby. Don’t worry. Many of us smoked during our pregnancies and have beautiful healthy children. And during breastfeeding too.
