Smoking after baby

I smoked weed since I was 18, pretty heavy, I’m now 29! Once I found out I was pregnant I stopped completely and it killed me but I didn’t want to risk it effecting my baby. My baby is nearly 7 months old and I still haven’t touched it but I’ve thought about it a lot recently! My partner doesn’t smoke and he definitely wouldn’t be happy if I was to start again (we’ve been together 2 years and wasn’t keen on me smoking when we got together so I used to not smoke around him). My friend was a stoner, gave up for baby and tried again afterwards and said it made her really paranoid. I just don’t want to have the same experience. I don’t know what to do, do I lie to my partner for my own sanity to take the edge off a little because times do get a little tough with the baby..or do I just not bother at all? 😩 UK based.

Hi I’m a 420 mom. I started smoking when I was 15 then stopped till I was 17 I became a heavy smoker till I got pregnant at 18, I started to slow down and didn’t use papers or grabba. when I hit my 2nd trimester I stopped. ( I had really bad morning sickness even during me giving birth) I started again after the 6 weeks. At first it was only a blunt a day after the baby was napping now for 2 years I’ve been only smoking 3 to 4 blunts a day. It’s normal to restart. I took a few weeks before I started deciding if I should. But I realized smoking helps me it calms me n if you get the right type of weed it can help you want to do stuff. When I got pregnant my husband who also was a heavy smoker more than me n I use to smoke 8ths a day quit completely. After having our blessing he still didn’t smoke untill she was a few months now he takes hits here or there but that’s it. As for your partner if you talk to him and explain why smoking helps you and you’ve been wanting to for a while but

You want his support in doing so. Honestly is key.

About the paranoia I didn’t feel that when I smoked I just felt really high. If you go to a smoke shop u can pick out what type of high u want.

My baby is 6 months and I just started smoking again honestly I wasn’t paranoid at all my breathing was a little like oof but I just pushed past it in my mind either sat and watched tv or cooking after like 2 days it got easier. Also I would talk to ur partner about it before starting unless honestly ur ready to risk it and just go for it

i know this probably isnt the advice ur looking for, but u know ur body best. trust ur gut. u wanna try again, go ahead. u will know if its not for u. best tip if u do start again, start small. u have no tolerance anymore. i hope this helps and good luck on ur endeavors
