Will Smoking Marijuana During Pregnancy Cause Any Problems?
I am 19, 5 feet 2 inches, 114 lbs. i am 24 weeks and 1 day pregnant and just quit smoking marijuana, it is the only thing that has helped me eat because my nausea is so bad. everyone has been telling me if i test positive or the baby tests positive i will have the baby taken away, and that is the last thing i want, which is why im making myself quit. Will this really happen?

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Yes. It is best to avoid all such addictive substances ads these can interfere with the normal growth and development of the baby. Withdrawal symptoms in baby are also seen.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
