Will Meth Smoked Just Before Pregnancy Confirmation Affect The Baby?

default
Posted on Mon, 22 Dec 2014
Question: Hi, Just been confirmed I'm 2 weeks pregnant and so very happy, my concern is that I smoked meth right before confirmation. Will this cause great harm to the fetus at just 2 weeks gestation. Will never touch it again knowing I'm going to be a mum. Praying I haven't hurt my unborn child even its only 2 weeks old.

Brief Answer:
no harm, quit it

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, it is definitely not good to smoke it in pregnancy but one time small episode will not cause much harm.
Just go for your routine antenatal check up and quit it now.
All the best.
