  • I know the opinions are strong with this one so I don’t want to use my regular username and then not feel like I can come for advice later on.

    So, long story short- I was a cannabis user, had my medical card and it helped with arthritis I had in my hand due to a childhood injury.
    I stopped as soon as I found out as I was pregnant. My husband and I didn’t think it was in the cards for me to get pregnant so we were surprised but extremely happy.
    I have had a miserable pregnancy thus far. Zofran didn’t help.
    My midwife actually recommended I continue light cannabis use for HG. I sat on it for a while, I read about it, both studies and personal opinions and preferences.

    My husband was okay with it. I decided to give it a try and my symptoms pretty much disappeared and have been completely gone for the few days I’ve been using it. Around 3 puffs a day.

    The what if question still plagues me, as it should. I wonder if I should stop and have everything come back.

  • I’ve never researched this (and don’t use or smoke myself), but I wonder if any other form besides smoking is potentially safer? CBD?

  • I tried light cannabis during HG after my midwife suggested it, and it helped a lot. For finding reliable guidance, I checked out https://medicalcannabis.co.uk/ to see how they handle similar cases. Their patient reviews gave me peace of mind about choices. Tapering before delivery is smart to avoid legal issues, but your health matters too.
