If the mother conceived unknowingly with high levels of THC in her blood, (and stoped mairijuana useage once the pregnancy was known) could there be any health risks to the future child?
Answer:
I have never heard of this causing future problems, but I do know that the first trimester is the most important as far as development of the fetus.
I would be more concerned about the carbon dioxide from the smoke causing low birth weight than the THC causing problems.
If I were you I would stop now and do whatever it takes to have a healthy baby in the future, which it sounds like you have done. There are many mothers who do things unknowlingly during the first few weeks of pregnancy. I'm no doctor but I would say make sure that you eat very healthily and there should not be a problem.
Answer:
I don't think the levels are high enough to effect a fetus unless you ate like a pound…As long as you stopped already science states you'll both be fine. The most common trouble with marijuana and pregnancy is the inability to conceive in the first place….
