1536705 tn?1324329047 Im nearly 18 weeks and my friend is going 25 weeks, Im just a little concerned because although I love her to bits, she does smoke alot of weed daily and I dont really know the effects it will have on her unborn baby. Im sure shes aware its not healthy, but Im curious what the effects will be so that if/when I tell her of my concerns I can make her of the damage shes doing. Does anyone know much about this?
Avatar f tn There hasnt been a study on the effects of weed on the human body since the 1930s when it was illegalized. And to top it all off it wasnt illegalized for the effects!
Avatar f tn So, smokong anything will irritate your lungs, and smoking marajuana sapps the body,of Vitamin C. Also, daily smoking builds up in your system, and of course,is fairly addictive. That being said, if you need to find pain relief, I think a toke off of a vaporiser, would be better then any kind of sleeping pill, or psych drug, fo sho. I chose to break my daily smoking habit, because I wanted my immune systme to be as strong as poosible.
Avatar f tn Idk if any of these things are solely a result of smoking weed during pregnancy but i do think that smoking weed does effect the baby. Especially during early pregnancy when the babys brain is developing. Smoking weed is no better than smoking cigarettes because when smoking both you're inhaling smoke and like my doctor tells me whatever i experience the baby experience.
Avatar n tn I'm 18 and i smoke a fair amount of weed, not daily anymore, but i had smoked daily at least three times a day for 5 months or so. No i smoke whenever sparatically. But when i smoke my chest gets a sort of tingling tightness. I havent ever had this happen to me before until i had a sinus infection and i still smoked. But now almost every time i smoke i get this feeling. I dont cough or anything i just get this discomfort.
Avatar n tn hey this is a super old thread but just incase someone is out there looking for answers, I'll add my 2 cents. I've been diabetic for 20 years now. I'm 28. I've been a regular pot user for probably 10 years. I firmly believe that used (not excessively) for diabetics, that pot can help a vast number diabetic complications and symptoms. This has been backed up recently by research on weed and diabetes.
Avatar m tn I would suggest not smoking cannibus (weed). If it isn't helping you, why smoke it? Please don't get me wrong, I am a firm believer in the medicinal value of weed, but if you aren't able to tolerate the effects, then stay away from it, please. You also may have smoked weed that was sprayed with a pesticide. You are so young...unless you have chronic pain or cancer, don't smoke weed. Its obviously not helping you. And...yes...I am a mother of 2 young adults in their 20's.
Avatar n tn okay well one time when i was smoking weed i reacted to it wicked funny. Like everything around me started to go in slow motionn. i couldnt walk rightt and when people would speakk i couldnt understand them, and it was almost like things where like strechingg. i didnt like it AT all and it would last like 2/3 days. I thought that maybe the weed was laced but i did like 4 times and everytime it happend. it was different weed from different people too. Is this normal? is it bad?
Avatar f tn A few years ago I used to smoke weed , when I smoked my body would twitch even after I was high, the twitches would last longer than usually , but after I stopped smoking they went away. Recently every day random parts of my body twitch, this usually happens 4-5 times a day and last for maybe 3 seconds. Is this normal? Or is this leading to something more serious, please help!
Avatar n tn he said my blood sugar is low after testing me, and that these symptoms are common so ive been correcting that too with medicines and detox. does anyone know if my problem could actually be weed? i was going to wait til it was definitely out of my system to smoke again, i really dont want to quit for good!
Avatar f tn What should be banned is the negatibity some of you women have showed. Makes me want to delete the app. No One said I was smoking weed I Was just curious about what people have read or been told or experienced. And for the woman you said suck it up. I bet you do have morning sickness. I bet you aren't in and out of the hospital bc you are violently throwing up daily for hours on end.

595559 tn?1241140638 What do you guys that know me and my background with being addicted to opiates think about me smoking weed to help with my Bipolar disoder???? And I mean every now and then.....not everyday. I am of course, also taking my meds from my pdoc. I would like some input.
Avatar n tn I smoked weed with my first, but cut back to once or twice a week and only a hit or two and she came out perfectly healthy, very smart, no side effects. I did stop before my 3rd trimester because I was afraid of drug testing. This time I am doing the same thing but haven't stopped in the 3rd trimester because I have been very sick and still working up to 36 weeks which has cause siatic (spelling?) Nerve pains in my back daily. I try taking Tylenol but it doesn't do enough.
Avatar f tn What are some serious short term and long term effects from smoking weed while pregnant? I'm barely 3 months, and I still smoke pot but not most of the day everyday like I did before.
Avatar m tn I rarely have a day off and when I am out of weed I get anxious. But the frustrating thing is smoking makes me paranoid and anxious too, I am not as social as I used to be. It upsets me and I need help. When I look to the future, even shortly down the road I don't want to see weed in it, I really don't. My friends and family do not really get it, neither does my girlfriend I don't think because I keep it all inside.
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 I'm pretty sure the effects are the same as smoking cigarettes. My mother smoked weed while pregnant with me and I had breathing problems at birth and I was taken away from her until I was 4 months old. Is it really worth any of the possible side effects. Plus it depletes your brain cells and right now your babies brain is developing very rapidly so why chance it....
Avatar m tn We are not experts here on "smoking weed", you'll need to look elsewhere. But, we all know smoking anything is bad for your health and especially bad for you heart. Recommendation: stop smoking. You didn't say how you know you have SVT, was it diagnosed by a doctor?
Avatar m tn Thanks newmanagement ther is way way too much paranoida about pot. I know tons of folks that smoked daily and have great kids. Normally these studies have hidden agendas. There is still this reefer madness mindset in the US even though its legal in California and other states. Why not ask a doctor there that gives a script to one of his patients for pot and that patient intends to have kids. The Uk is going on very bad info they just made pot there a schelude B drug.

Avatar f tn well first off, congrats on quitting the weed and alcohol. marijuauna is only a mental addiction, not physical so what you need to do is when the cravings come stay busy. occupy your mind with something you don't associate smoking weed with. if you have smoked for 12 years it may be a few months before the cravings start to disappear, but with some time you won't even think about it no more.
Avatar f tn I understand weed is illegal but when it comes down to the fact of either A. Being dehydrated, and losing mass amounts of weight vs smokong a bit of weed or eating it I say, (and so does my dr) that I gotta do what I can to stay healthy and make sure baby gets what it needs. I don't plan on smoking it when baby is born, but for now with nausea and vomiting as bad as this..... I don't ever wanna go back to the way it was.. 95 pounds 7 weeks pregnant...
Avatar m tn This may be due to the past weed smoking, but he is leaning toward smoking weed again. Aside from the loss of short term memory, is the risk of seizures very high? He's very healthy and has never had any brain related problems in the past. Any answers or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
