How long will it take for marijuana to get out of a unborn baby system

[smoothy]

Long enough the damage will already be done. Particularly during critical development phases.

Not a good idea at all.

"Smoking marijuana during pregnancy may affect your baby's growth and the development of his nervous system. Studies have shown that children who were exposed to marijuana during pregnancy sometimes have problems focusing their attention and solving problems.

Children of heavy pot users may also have problems with short-term memory, concentration, and judgment. (There's no evidence so far, however, that marijuana use during pregnancy causes attention deficit hyperactivity disorder).

One study even found that young children whose mothers smoked marijuana during pregnancy had a higher risk of leukemia than those whose mothers did not."

Marijuana will not be out of your baby's system until after it is born. If you are a pot smoker, the pediatrician can test the baby's meconium (first poops after birth) for drugs. If you have used marijuana even once, it will show positive and you will risk losing your baby to DHS.
