How Long Does It Take For Marijuana To Be Expelled From The Body?

How long will marijuana take to leave mine and my babys system? Im pregnant and started smoking around 20 weeks into my pregnancy because of pain and some nausea, and stopped around 25 weeks. And between those weeks I had only smoked once or twice a week. Will it be out of my system by the time my baby is born? PLEASE HELP

Yes, on chronic use, marijuana takes about 3 months to be removed from the system. In acute use, it takes only 3 days. From what you have described, it should not take more than 2-3 weeks for it to be out. You have not mentioned your current week of gestation but I would feel that you should be okay before the baby is born! Congrats!
