What Is The Best Way To Get Marijuana Out Of The System?

I am being induced in one week and have smoked weed my entire pregnancy I am a firm believer that marijuana does not cause any abnormalities towards a baby. But I do need to get it out of my system so that CPS is not involved what is the best way to get marijuana out of my system within a week and is it already in the baby s system because they will be testing the baby s first bowel movement....how long does marijuana normally take to be in babies system I m just very worried my baby will be taken from me for smoking weed which i think is crazy

Hi,

There is enough scientific evidence to prove that cannabis is harmful not only for adults but also for unborn babies. In adults, it can cause anxiety disorders, psychosis and other problems, while children of mothers who continued to smoke cannabis have been shown have cognitive abnormalities. I do not think it will be possible for you to avoid testing positive with just a week of abstinence. Your baby too has already been exposed to cannabis through your blood and is likely to test positive.

Best wishes.
