No,: but you can not reverse any changes it may have had on your baby's brain development.  The effects of "weed" during pregnancy have not be well investigated.  Good luck with your baby!  Stay straight!

Question 3

what could be reason that i can't see colors after smoking weed?

Accepted Answer

Can't be good sign: I honestly don't know the reason why you can't see colors after smoking weed. I've never heard of that particular side effect. It seems like a good reason to think twice about continuing to smoke weed. Despite the common misconception that marijuana is harmless, having this side effect brings home the fact that marijuana is not doing good things to your brain. I wish you the best for your health.

Question 6

how come after smoking weed i can't fall asleep yet i get so relaxed?

Accepted Answer

Relaxing of course: That is one of the reasons use "drugs"...They derive some benefit out of them, however the trouble that it causes outweighs the benefits, couple of long term consequences:
1. A motivational syndrome
2. Increase the risk of psychosis by 7 fold. 
So i suggest you stop using and if yu need help to relax, please get proper help.

Question 9

hi there im 24, i started smoking weed a year ago. lately, i started to feel some pain at the left side of my chest i cant tell if its the heart?

: From the posted information we can't either. At your age the more common cause of pain in that area is heartburn, since it is located at the stomach entrance, which is just to the left of and behind the heart.

Question 10

is smoking weed bad for health?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Like anything in life, excessive use of marijuana or any cannabis product can be harmful. Smoked cannabis can lead to the same carcinogenic risk that smoked tobacco use gives. So non smoked is safer. It has long been known that chronic daily marijuana use also leads to issues with poor follow through on daily tasks and the "pothead" syndrome that leads to poverty. Lastly, psychosis remains a risk.
