Pregnant women should not do any drugs period. But if she must smoke, limit her smoking to once a month tops and only a hit or two. My wife smoked about 4 or 5 times during her pregnancy and our baby turned out fine, but she only took 1 or 2 hits. But that doesnt mean it won't hurt your baby. Its not worth it period. Oh BTW when the baby is born they check to make sure there are no drugs found in its system and if there are... your baby is gone while you go to rehab (almost happened to us).
If she cannot function without smoking, she better get used to it, being a parent is a lot harder than not smoking.

I love all the namecalling in this thread.

Obviously everything I could think of to say has probably already been said...so.....yeah don't do it man.

Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run, but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant."

9 months without drugs, sounds like a long time, but so what? I know that if I ever have a wife or girlfriend who's pregnant, not only will I have her stop using any substance, from mushrooms to weed, but I'll quit as well. *shrug*.

I know one woman who smoked pot while pregnant and got a healthy baby... Of course this doesn't mean the same will happen to you...
Every human being (born or unborn), is different so the effects will never be exactly the same. It depends so much on the situation that it is almost impossible to say what will happen... If i were you i would help your girlfriend to find another way to balance herself instead of smoking pot. Try meditation or Yoga etc etc.... There are many options that don't involve exposing your unborn child to drugs...

That does NOT mean that the same will be true for your child.
The fact that you even need to make a post and ask whether doing these things are ok should be a good indicator to you. I'm a woman, and I've been through a miscarriage after 6 months of pregnancy. There is no worse feeling, I assure you. My miscarriage had nothing to do with using illegal substances, but your girlfriend doing so COULD have serious health repercussions on your unborn child. Would you be able to live with that chance that if your girlfriend miscarried, or gave birth to a child with serious health problems, that it COULD have been from her smoking pot or eating mushrooms? Is it really fucking worth that?!
I assure you, when you are RAISING this child, the sacrifices you and your woman are going to have to make to raise it right will far surpass turning down pot or mushrooms. Every decision in your life, from the day she delivers to the day that child is an adult will have to revolve around it. Tell your girl to get used to making small sacrifices, because if she can't handle that, she sure as fuck won't be able to handle being a mother.
When and if I am lucky enough to conceive again, I would NEVER, EVER do drugs during pregnancy. Just the chance that it could do something to harm my child would be plenty of reasons for me to stop. It's a shame that's apparently not the case for some people.

What the fuck?
Don't give someone who's pregnant drugs. That's just common sense, fool.

I don't think this guy is even around any more. Or at least he hasn't posted. Man I hope he took some of this advice to heart.

yes, i was also going to point out just how many miscarrages really occur and just aren't talked about.
pregnancy can be a very delicate process, and losing a baby, although, as the father, might not seem so bad. To a woman, you might as well stab her in the face and lock her in a hole. from the physical act of becomming SEVERELY I'll and having dead tissue be removed from you with husky rasping tools, to the emotional crash of the loss of a child that was as real as if it had been born and loved for years. women seldom ever really recover. and they blaime themselves. first pregnancy? chances are it WILL miscarrage anyway. Most mothers will tell you they've lost a few. you have to be SO careful. Doing drugs is just plain dumb. and ignoring that it's dumb is ignorant. dumb people can get away with being parents by working hard. ignorant people aren't ready.

I bet he's around, he was probably a puppet made to protect his identity. He seemed to act like someone who knew his way around the shroomery and had a pretty established idea of what the site is about. He was wrong tho. First and formost the site is about being responsable with drugs. Not being a cool place where people don't make judgements about drug use and users. If anything, we ought to all be watching out for irresponsable behaviour, PARTICULARLY when innocent children are involved. It takes a community to raise a child.
