Instead, when someone posts a question, the site invites other eHealthMe users of the same gender and similar age who have taken the same medications to answer the question.

After evaluating the children at 3 days old, one month old, four years old, and five years old, Dreher found no adverse effects among the marijuana-exposed group, even with the babies of heavy users.

Drehers study is significant because it is one of the few that followed babies of mothers who used only marijuana during pregnancyand not alcohol or tobacco, toxins that are known to affect the fetus when taken in large quantities. Dreher intended to follow the children throughout their schooling, but her research funding was cut off after the five-year follow-up.

McCarthy and his colleagues presented their findings in the October issue of the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology. The study authors focused on more than 5,600 pregnant women who enrolled in the study between 2004 and 2011 in Australia, Great Britain, Ireland and New Zealand. All the women were interviewed between the 14th and 16th week of pregnancy about their alcohol consumption — both before becoming pregnant and during the first 15 weeks of gestation. The majority of the women — six in 10 — said they’d consumed some amount of alcohol during the first four months of pregnancy. These women were more likely to be younger, white and single, with a history of smoking or drug use. Nearly one in five said they’d drank occasionally, meaning one to two “units” of alcohol per week.
