Will Smoking Meth While Breastfeeding Affect Baby?
Hello, i know this was a very wrong thing to do especially since i am a mother. three days ago i smoked meth and a couple hours later i breastfed my one month old baby he was acting weird after that and i felt terrible my question is when will it be out of his system and what are the effects??
Thanks for the query. Breastfeeding is not recommended if a mother is using methamphetamine because babies may have side effects such as insomnia, jitteriness, irritability, reduced weight gain, and poor sleep patterns. So i request you to quit the habit. Hope i helped you.
