Had a baby 3 weeks ago. smoked some pot today. when is it safe to continue breastfeeding ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unknown: the active ingredient in marijuana is lipophilic, so it stores in the fat tissues and releases at times. I am going to assume you smoke pot more than say once a month or so. I cannot recommend you smoke pot and breastfeed, so I cannot say with certainty that there is a safe time to breastfeed as long as you are smoking pot.
