Up to a week after delivery. They test the poop of the baby. Once the marijuana gets in, it cannot get out until there is more poop.
Good news. They don't take everyone's kid away permanently and this is very very common (at least 10% I would estimate); they don't take 10% of kids.

Hello,
Marijuana can stay in your system for months if you were using it every day. Please stop using it now for your best chance for a clean drug screen at delivery.
