well hell...I know where I'll be getting my THC from from now on

The naughty emot at the end just tied it off.
And to the OP, when used as you say, to combat nausea and other ill effects I wouldn't see a problem with it at all. I love smoking pot to get stoned, but it's definitely an excellent medicine! If she just used it for medicinal purposes as you're saying the baby should be fine. I think you're right about all the other shit we take in being a lot more harmful.
Babies get toxins. Every baby. It happens. Maybe a vape would cut that down a bit, or as you mentioned edibles. I know a friend who candy flipped early in the pregnancy (she didn't know at that point that she was pregnant) and her kid is perfectly fine physically and damn smart for her age. I'm not saying go out there and do a bunch of drugs cause being pregnant sucks, but a small bowl out of a vape, or a brownie in the morning isn't going to give your baby gigantic brain defects.

THC and all the other chemicals in Marijuana have shown to be completely non toxic. I would limit however how much intake on that, and she seems to be doing just that, I would also limit fast food etc. Studies show that at least very mild alcohol drinking does not affect the baby. I would stay away from caffeine as much as possible, from what doctors say.

Danksis smoked herb on occassion while pregnant with our son, Elijah. She was very very particular about what she put into her body, so I am quite sure that she researched everything to do with herb smoking ad pregnancy. Elijah is a very smart and strong toddler now, so I'm going to go ahead and say that I think that smoking herb while pregnant is alright, as long as you don't smoke it all the time.

[disclaimer]
Everyone needs to keep in mind that none of us are doctors or researchers in this field. While we can say "so and so smoked and their baby is fine" there is no concrete evidence to back it up. Most of everything posted in this thread is a subjective opinion and is not fact.
While i appreciate the fact that there are parents who have smoked during pregnancy and have noticed no ill effects in their children, people should take caution and really weigh out the options before deciding to follow in the same foot steps. Please, people, always consult your physician before making decisions like this, im just saying this as a warning since no one in this thread is truly qualified to give medical advice. JUST BECAUSE RESULTS ARE INCONCLUSIVE OR FINDINGS ARE LIMITED DOES NOT MEAN IT'S SAFE.
please, think of the children, won't somebody please think of the children 
[/disclaimer]
like i mentioned to all those parents who have noticed no ill effects please don't think im trying to discredit you, i just feel it's necessary to point out the fact that people need to take extreme caution when ingesting various things during pregnancy. We all have the right to choose what we put in our bodies but it's important to make the right choice for those that can't speak.
-------------------- To get really high is to forget yourself. And to forget yourself is to see everything else. And to see everything else is to become an understanding molecule in evolution, a conscious tool of the universe. And I think every human being should be a conscious tool of the universe. . . . -JG i really am glad you came back to us instead of taking the other path. *hug* -A_S (RIP your final words to me will never be forgotten)
 Don't fuck with the laughing jesus.

I agree, a physician should be consulted in just about all matters regarding this. Am I going to believe a physician that tells me it will make the baby retarded and have bad lung function though? No of course I won't because I know he's just telling me what he has to to start writing out prescriptions that I'm 100% convinced doctors are getting commission off these days.
(Also, I'd like to thank you mods for editing out the garbage and keeping the thread going, I didn't see what the posts were since I've been away since my last post but thank you.)
I agree with a lot of opinions and points of view in this post, and this is why I wanted a real discussion about it. And not one person yet has come forward saying smoking pot affected their child in a negative manner at all (No a friend having a baby with a hearing problem does not count, I'm sure I could dig up a statistic on children with hearing problems that would look good but be totally irrelevant.)
Anyway the opinion I agree with most here, ironically enough, is if it's not my baby it's not my concern. I think the mother has the choice in this matter how she wants to deal with her symptoms.
However I believe if it was my baby I'd want (I'll use my girlfriend as an example) my girlfriend to for sure stop smoking so much, (She smokes so much pot it affects her health, so clearly smoking THAT MUCH pot could have ill effects on a child), and start using a vaporizer or putting the cannabis into food to be eaten. I would feel way more comfortable with this than any prescribed drugs that do the same thing. That's my main point I guess, fuck untested, newly prescribed drugs with side effects not even measured when things can be treated so much more naturally.

You do realize however that this exact logic is used on BOTH sides by pharmaceutical companies though right? It's used to dis-credit natural medicines like marijuana for instance, and somehow used at the same time to push these pills that are very badly tested for long term effects.

Ya, my boy had a baby last year and their DR said no buts but new research actually showed some pothead's babies were above average intelligence, obvioulsy moderation is suggested but It doesn't kill braincells as suggested before any more than the air we are breathing anyway....kills lung cancer tumors, 50% reduction in 1st two weeks of testing....It's up to you. but it definitly wont make something like a crack baby.
