My pediatrician actually told me smoking is ‘better’ in the sense that it moves through your system quicker… he said it’s best to pump once if smoking, twice if eating an edible

Idk honestly eating an edible will stay in your system longer but smoking gets in the blood stream so…

Thank you, Sophie will you mind please to explain a little more about the pump part so for example after you just smoke how long should you wait to pump and for how long you should pump and then I guess feed the baby after that. Please and thank you

@Sophie

Yes! So apparently, after you smoke, you’ll want to wait ~3 hours, pump fully then you’re good to feed baby once milk comes back in… this is my understanding, obviously I’m not a doctor and no one has really studied this but this is the insight I’ve been given! Then if you take an edible, it’s been suggested to essentially do the above twice. Wait pump, wait pump, then feed baby (it’ll end up being like 6ish hours after you eat the edible)
