umm... because you need to find a new OB....
smoking pot is NOT healthy for your baby.
The active ingredient delta -9-THC crosses human placenta
Suggested possible association between heavy marijuana use in pregnancy and preterm deliveries dysfunctional labor, precipitate labor, meconium staining.
Regular marijuana use in pregnancy is possibly associated with in utero growth retardation.
Possible association between heavy marijuana use and congenital defects mainly eye defects.
Off springs of regular marijuana users may have alteration in neurobehavior such as tremors, irritability, high-pitched cry without effects on mental or motor development.
In utero marijuana exposure may be related to development of childhood malignancies mainly leukemia and there is doubtful association with chromosomal damage.
So... in other words, if you want to risk your unborn baby to have growth problems, possible blindness, be constantly screaming for no reason after its born, and possible leukemia... go ahead... toke away.

Smoking pot as well as taking other drugs can zap the brain cells out of your body or worse. Your doctor is a quack. Your unborn child will be effected by whatever you smoke, ingest, or drink.

was your ob on pot at the time? If not it sounds to me the doc needs to get him so good drugs from a mental ward. My advice is find another doctor

I think maybe you misunderstood what he said. If you are pregnant you should not be taking any drug, including over the counter meds like cough medicine.

The only reason I can think of is that it could help with anxiety and morning sickness.
