marijuana use while pregnant

I smoked before I got pregnant and never stopped when I found out I was pregnant because my morning sickness was so bad and it was the only thing that helped and allowed me to eat, but now I'm 33 weeks and don't smoke everyday but I just recently stopped smoking as much and am really worried about how its affected my baby.. (note: I did not smoke cigarettes at all during pregnancy, only marijuana)

There shouldn't be any problems. If you've been healthy otherwise. Eating right etc.

I have never read a real bad correlation between weed and a fetus. You should be okay. Just simmer down.

Your baby will be fine. I would just stop now becuase when you go into labor they drug test the babies at the hospital atleast they do where i live.

I know plenty of women who smoked marijuana while pregnant. I have a couple times but I try not to. All the babies have come out great and one is even making Olympic qualifying scores in swimming (we might see her in 2016).  I have read it can affect growth but if your baby is the proper size then I wouldn't worry.
