Ever since my girlfriend had our baby, I haven’t been smoking marijuana inside of the house.
Neither one of us really knows the effect that marijuana can have on a newborn and we don’t want to take any chances.
My girlfriend still hasn’t gone back to smoking weed, because she is breastfeeding. I feel bad that she can’t smoke out with me, but I still continue to use medical marijuana. I have PTSD and tons of anxiety from growing up in an abusive household. Marijuana helps me feel more calm so I can function like a normal human being. I’ve been smoking in my car lately, because it’s in the single digits outside. I don’t prefer to smoke marijuana in my car, but it is the only place where I am out of the wind and the cold temperature. Even if I don’t turn on the car, it is still about 15 or 20 degrees warmer inside of the vehicle. I bundle up with a jacket and a hat and I wear gloves when I’m not getting high. The sun goes down at 5 and it’s 5° outside before I go to bed each night. It’s been really difficult to keep the house warm. I’m thankful that my parents bought us a heater a month before winter started. It was a gift when our daughter was born. My parents weren’t going to help us out, but they suddenly changed their minds when they found out that my girlfriend was pregnant with their first grandchild. Now they suddenly accept my pot smoking and our relationship.
