HI,
I understand your concern.
Smoking pot in pregnancy is definitely harmful for baby. The effects range from abortions, premature delivery,still birth, low birth weights,congenital malformations.. specially about cognitive development of baby
YOur friend has smoked for about 6 months of pregnancy.. the risk of it's effect on development remains there.
She has stopped from 2 months.. so she is likely to skip the detection test of marijuana at child birth.
Thanks.
