Hello ma'am and welcome.

It should wash out of the babys system in a few days, but the pot can cause serious developmental abnormalities.if abused during pregnancy, please refrain from doing this again. Although your baby is at term and fully developed, I would still strictly advise against this.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
