It's not illegal to give a pregnant woman marijuana?
Again, I would like to see proof.
Sorry, not taking your word for it.

Then go to California and smoke while you're pregnant and find out if there are health problems. I can promise you're not going to convince anyone that has already responded to you that its "okay" to smoke marijuana while you're pregnant. Someone who is obviously immature should not be having unprotected sex. Nothing you can do about it if you are pregnant now, except make good and healthy choices for your child. But if your not already pregnant please go get some birth control. There are enough kids with pot head mothers running around that my taxes pay for. We don't need more.
Love you tons Exy, but I disagree.
If you grow your own then I agree, it's not harmful to you, other then the smoke which can cause cancer, just like cigarettes.
But, while pregnant, not only are you risking lower birth rate (at 17 the OP will probably already have a low weight baby) but you're also risking the long term health of your child.
Also, most people don't grow their own, so you never know what you're really getting.
It's 9 months, not long at all. Anyone that can't even commit to 9 months of change isn't ready to have a child.
That's my opinion.
I have a question.
When the baby is born, will you give it a joint? Will you let it smoke with you? Of course you'd probably have to wait until it's old enough, I'd say 1, maybe 2.
Will you sit around with your baby and smoke a joint?
Why is gay marriage okay in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Iowa, but not in other states?
In this country, there is something called states' rights. It's up to each state to make laws to govern its citizens. Medical marijuana (not pot smoking, yet) might be legal in California, but it is not legal in other states.
Medical Marijuana and smoking weed off the street!
Two very different scenarios!
Its like apples and oranges honey and your argument just does not wash!
True, and it's not that bad.
I had morning sickness with my daughter. I don't know why they call it morning sickness, it was 24/7, lasted around 6 weeks then I was fine.
Even through the worst of it, it wasn't that bad. Having a cold is worse, IMO.
The OP just wants the okay to do what she wants to do. She hasn't even experienced morning sickness yet, heck, she doesn't even know if she's pregnant yet.
This is only about one thing, what the OP wants, not what the child needs.
Are none of you reading what I'm saying? Did I ever say I'm going to smoke? Nooo I don't think so?.
But I got my information from the internet.
Also watch the movie " the union."
And another thing weren't women having baby's at 14 way back when? So why does it matter how old I am?
Why start the thread if it was never an issue?
Also, the internet isn't always reliable.
The Union, maybe, but it won't change my mind.
Yes, back then women had babies at 14. Do you know what the survival rate was, of both mother and baby? It wasn't good. Chances were you'd die during child birth, not only because of lack of medical care but because of the age of the mothers.
Also, at 17, you're way to young to have a child. You can't support yourself, or the child, it's not very likely that your boyfriend will stick around. Why go through all of this if you don't have to?
But hey, you're 17, you know everything. I'm 38, lived through 17 and all the years since then, so what do I know? :rolleyes:
Watch the little mermaid. It's a good movie too. You can't trust the internet OR what a movie says is OK. And if you were'nt going to smoke why would you ask? AND you at 17 havve a job where you make more than 30k a year? Own a house? Own a car? Have a husband? All good things to think about before having a baby. This isn't the 1800's.
I smoke but I never did it pregnant and I never would.I know people who did and I think their kids are a little messed up!
Seriously.
Ginger ale and saltine crackers at your bedside before you even get up is my recommendation.
Also if you are seriously sick with morning sickness(if that is your excuse) than talk to your doctor ,there are drugs that are prescribed if you have debilitating sickness.
My adopted grandbaby weighed 2lbs.and 13 oz. at birth.Her mother tested positive for marijuana.It was in the baby's bloodstream.
She is now two yrs.old and still playing catch up.Thankfully,she has a new mother,Grandma! The real Mom has never come back to see her daughter.
Don't be a statistic!
Artsy, my cousins wife smoked marijuana during her pregnancy. The baby was under 4 pounds, born 1 week early. She has problems with her vision, the doctors are pretty sure it was due to marijuana use.
She is 22 now, dumb as a post (love her but it's true), her eyes are screwed up beyond repair. She can see but is still considered legally blind. She'll never drive, she works but will never have a career or a well paying job.
She will always have to depend on someone else, just because mom only thought about herself for those 9 months. :(
I smell a Troll.
You are all not getting this. It was a question never said I smoke I wanted to know my opinon its not bad to smoke weed period. But if it could harm my child I would not touch it. You people are close minded people. You focus on one thing being right. This is not what I want its what's safe why do you think I asked? Duuhh?
Oh and me and my boyfriend have an apartment together. So I don't think he can leave. If he really wanted to he would have left. He has a job coaching and make 40- 50/hr. so a lesson. I think I'm doing pretty good not to metion I'm about to graduate in 6 months and I have a job. But hey you guys know everything :)
All this over a simple question.
Simple question with an honest answer that you did not agree with.
