Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query smoking Marijuana could affect since first trimester till last trimester. It could effect psychological and physical growth of child. It could result in low birth weight babies, miscarriage, abortion. It cannot be predicted actually that how low will it stay as it depends on body metabolic rate as a general rule it stays 30 days in body and detected mainly in initial 10 days. You should take wheatgrass Juice , the chlorophyll in wheatgrass is what makes it so cleansing as cholorophyll is a potent blood, liver and gastrointestinal cleanser. I would suggest you to stop it immediately. If it is giving you much addiction taper the dose and eventually stop. If after baby birth you will start having it again it will reach by milk and will stay in baby system and will start giving adverse effects.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
