anyone?

I was just wondering what any ladies have experienced in terms of smoking weed during your pregnancy. I only smoked every once in awhile, from the beginning of my second trimester, up to about a week ago and am currently at 32+5w with my one and only little boy. He is so far completely healthy, and I'm not concerned at all that it will cause any disruptions or problems from here on out. My only concern is that I'm 99% positive my birthing center drug tests upon delivery and I was looking to find out if anyone thinks it'll be out of my system by then. And before passing judgment, I intentionally smoked due to the fact that I was 98lbs before getting pregnant and had nausea and eating problems throughout my pregnancy. I also wanted it to be spiritually a part of my sons development.

They test either stool or urine. They rig him up with a bag to catch whatever falls first and send it out for testing. I can usually clean my system out in a week or two due to having low body fat. I'm just unsure of how it works with him chilling in the amniotic fluid and all.

If you stop now you'll test clean,  depending on how they test the baby will vary if he will test clean or not. If they take blood or use his meconium as a way of testing it will most likely show up.

It may show uo and if they test baby it will definitely show up no matter how much time has passed. Here if the dr suspects it they automatically test both mom and baby and dhs is there to wait for the results. If its positive the state immediately takes custody. If youre in a state where its legal then you have no worries.
