A recent large-scale longitudinal study has found no ties between cannabis use during pregnancy and different neurodevelopmental outcomes for exposed children.

The study, released in June in the journal Paediatric and Perinatal Epidemiology, had more extensive controls for confounding factors than in previous studies, and followed children to age 20. When researchers accounted for the characteristics of the parents, researchers found no associations between prenatal cannabis and neurodevelopmental differences.

This is positive news, given the fact that 4.2% of pregnant women report using cannabis, and the number has been increasing. Pregnant cannabis users also face arrest, prison, and removal of children in multiple states.

Fell down a #weed rabbit hole. #Leafly sent me a promo email suggesting Wedding Cake, Northern Lights, and GSC as strains I should look at. So I figured why not at least look. So since Leafly was already open, looked for them all. Mostly hit and miss, lots of carts, infused pre-rolls (which led to a side-rabbit hole), plain flower in pre-rolls and some sold as buds/nugs. I got to thinking about carts again, but the further along I go the more I feel more comfortable approaching #cannabis +
