Avatar f tn Ok so I'm just finding out I'm pregnant. Sad to admit, I like smoking marjuanna. I know doctors suggest not smoking cigarettes while pregnant because of the toxins in the nicotine. Are there any known cases where marjuanna effects fetal development? Not saying I won't quit smoking, I do want a healthy baby, just curious.
Avatar m tn Hello, I am 16 years of age and I smoke marijuana every single schoolnight, and on weekends. I started smoking about 3 years ago, and have been smoking almost every day for a year and a half. What could be possible negative effects, is what I am wondering. It does not effect my work ethic, Ive gotten one C on a report card in two years. I love skateboarding, and stay active doing this every day that is possible. And I absolutely love to smoke weed, by myself, every night.
Avatar n tn Are you running from reality? Every day there are stresses but it's up to you to learn to deal with them and hopefully without the use of any "substance." Sometimes people need the help of a anti-depressant/anxiety drug to get them through a difficult period but that should be discussed between that person and their doctor. It is a fallacy that smoking helps stress. Read on: "Smokers often report that cigarettes help relieve feelings of stress.

Avatar n tn Marijuana smoke contains some of the same ingredients in tobacco smoke that can cause emphysema and cancer. In addition, many marijuana users also smoke cigarettes; the combined effects of smoking these two substances creates an increased health risk. Marijuana smoke has been found to contain more cancer-causing agents than is found in tobacco smoke.
Avatar f tn What are the side effects of smoking when pregnant? Did any of u girls smoke when u were pregnant? I'm 16 weeks and trying to quit but it a lot harder than I thought .
Avatar n tn But i stopped for almost a year with no problems. never really a big user. but recently i smoked alot over the past week. and i stopped smoking and drinking all together a day or two later because i was feeling really wierd. i get butterflyes in my stomach, sometimes randomly feel dizzy, disconnected from people and things.. i feel the best when i wake up in the morning and then it kinda starts through out the day.
Avatar f tn You just have to want it with all your heart, acquire nerves of steel and realize and Know for a fact, smoking creates MORE anxiety than ever and be willing to see the excuses for what they are - Excuses! I have never heard one excuse not to quit smoking that made any sense. What I can say for sure is it does get easier, no doubt about it. I am nearly to my one year quit and it's the best thing Iv'e ever done for myself.
Avatar f tn I have a close friend who has been addicted to marijuana for a long time, she also smoked during her pregnancy and no they did not test her for it when she gave birth. I don't know much on the effects of marijuana use during pregnancy but I strongly suggest that you look into that for the benefit of the baby. I know that she breastfed for quite a while, continuing to pass the drug onto her child. Our sons are the same age and have been friends since infancy.
Avatar n tn Well there are kinds of long terms effects of smoking not just cancer. But note I said long term. One time will not do that. I don't know if hookah pipes are safer. Perhaps. Clearly nicotine overall is not healthy in any form. But one time usage will not create this.
Avatar f tn I still continued to smoke for a couple of days, but only a couple of puffs from my husbands cigarette 2-3 times a day, then I looked online about the effects off smoking whilst pregnant and quit straight away! There are times when I would like a cigarette but I care for my unborn baby a million times more than a dirty fag! Honestly the best thing you can do is quit, every time you smoke your babies tiny heartbeat has to beat extremely fast as it struggles for oxygen!
Avatar f tn No motivation, sleeping 16-18 hours etc. This was a new Doctor for me. Family practice. I also quit smoking and was on Chantix at the same time. I thought the terrible side effects were Chantix. But I still am in trouble after stopping Chantix 7 weeks ago. Pretty nuts, a change from smoking 40 years, Effexor, Chantix, and Prozac. Should I quit every drug and start over?
Avatar f tn A specialist told me my MRI results show evidence of 3 or 4 strokes. In fact the report says "Impression: There are a few hyperintense T2 lesions in the frontal, subcortical, white matter bilaterally." Could these indicate stroke or TIA? Would these cause memory loss? The neurologist who ordered the MRI did not tell me to return to see him, should I? I only found out the results of the MRI when seeing an ENT regarding surgery and she read the report for me.
Avatar f tn The liver filters everything that goes into your body. The chemicals from smoking may not get a first pass through the liver as if you'd eaten them but smoking is not liver friendly.
Avatar f tn If you stop smoking, that's the best thing you can do. You are young, you've only smoked a couple of cigarettes and you can reverse the effects if you quit. Good for you for being concerned about it! Be tough and stop smoking now!

Avatar f tn Look up some articles if you want to know the effects of smoking. You don't want to put anything into your body tat isn't good for either of you while you are pregnant. I don't know of any doctors who would encouraged you to continue smoking unless you are stressing out more from not smoking.
Avatar n tn I have been prescribed Acebutolol for PVC's and I am literally exhausted since beginning this medication but I didn't see that as one of the side effects. Also, my vision is blurred. Is this normal?
Avatar f tn People have many different opinions but there are no studys that find anything wrong with it unless you are smoking blunts which have tobacco in it or smoking a large amount daily i have also have drs say it would be ok to take a hit if it helps you eat and stops the nausea
1536705 tn?1324329047 As far as I know there have not been any actual effects found for smoking weed. The literature says the only known effects are the same of that found for smoking cigarettes. Although it just cant be good for mum or baby. She needs to ensure that she is taking in the correct vitamins etc and I dont know how smoking weed effects these thing in your body. Have a chat with her.
Avatar n tn Ok I just found out I am 5 weeks and ive been smoking weed pretty heavy this past month. Will my baby be okay if I stop now?
Avatar f tn Google how smoking effects your baby. One was it increases the risk of sids (sudden infant death syndrome). That alone should be enough for someone to quit but a lot of moms turn a blind eye to the negative side effects. Best of luck quitting! !!
Avatar f tn I was a smoker and stopped straight away i dont even crave anymore and i do feel a lot better for it although ive got to admit i have to watch what i eat as at first i think i ate to give me something to do lol. I googled what effects smoking has on a baby and that was enough to put me off straight away. Im not saying its not going to be hard especially if you have smokers around you but id also ask them to refrain from smoking anywhere near you.
