Not at all: It is wise to minimize exposure to all drugs and herbs in pregnancy, esp. The first trimester, but the amount that would be entering your body from smelling it from a distance is so minimal i would have no concern. In studies of women who have used marijuana during pregnancy there is surprisingly little evidence of harm. See http://www.420magazine.Com/2013/03/use-of-marijuana-during-pregnancy/.
