On this week's episode of Blunt Blowin' Mama, we are running back a conversation where we analyze a study on cannabis use in pregnancy that was published by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America (PNAS) on Nov. 15, 2021. This study claims that cannabis use in pregnancy causes higher levels of cortisol in the children born, resulting in more instances of anxiety, stress, and depression.
Here's the study: https://www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1073/pnas.2106115118
Now, you know we tried to go straight to the source and we reached out to the study's author, Yasmin Hurd, but got no response. So we brought on our own medical experts to unpack the study's findings and provide real, transparent, and unbiased insights from two board-certified registered nurses, Kait Boettcher and Adjuan Edgerson. We asked each nurse a variety of questions about the study, and they broke down what this study's findings really mean for pregnant mamas using cannabis. The nurses also provide advice for expectant mothers who want to use cannabis for medical reasons.
This episode is so informative and really teaches us that we hold the power to educate ourselves on the effects of cannabis -- especially when it comes to its use during pregnancy.

This episode is for you, and I didn't hold back in this LIVE "Ask My Anything" conversation I had on Blunt Blowin' Mama's Instagram account. Listen, when I told y'all anything, you truly took it to heart and brought me questions on cannabis use during pregnancy, favorite products, and way more motherhood and cannabis questions. You just gotta tap in to see if I answered YOUR question -- should I do this again? I haven't done one of these episodes in years so maybe it's time to bring it back.

I breastfed both of my kids. But I only used cannabis while breastfeeding one of them. Not too surprisingly, my second born (my cannababy) was the kid I used cannabis while breastfeeding and he's the one I ended up breastfeeding the longest -- 25 months to be exact. I know it's no coincidence either because without cannabis I would have given up and thrown in the towel way sooner because breastfeeding is not easy -- neither is weaning. Well, that's what I thought until I started intentionally using cannabis postpartum and realizing along the way how helpful weed could really be for a breastfeeding mama. This is a highly requested topic and I am finally giving y'all all the information on why I used cannabis during breastfeeding, how I weaned both my kids, and how cannabis helped with not only my breastfeeding journey but weaning, too.
Learn more about breastfeeding and using cannabis by watching my informative workshop on it, the BBM Self-Guided Breastfeeding And Cannabis Workshop where I speak with lactation consultant Evonne Smith, Dr. Oga Obie, cannamom advocate and children's book author MsKindess Ramirez, and Jessica "The Mommy Jane." Our over 120-minute conversation is full of tips, tricks, advice and our own accounts on how weed is beneficial for the breastfeeding parent along with the most harm-reductive ways to consume it with a baby in the home.

I used cannabis during my pregnancy with my second child and I firmly believe it was the best decision I ever could have made for myself and baby. I enjoyed my pregnancy, I was emotionally well and physically cared for with the help of cannabis. Now, I want to make sure other parents know that cannabis is an option for pregnancy, too. Listen, I know that pregnancy can be very challenging physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. In my opinion, cannabis eases those challenges and allows me to just enjoy the blessing that is pregnancy -- bask in the experience as my body works a true miracle. It's so hard to be present for that miracle when navigating the many curveballs pregnancy can throw your way. So, after many requests from y'all, I put together this episode as a resource and needed guidance for anyone who is considering using cannabis during pregnancy and doesn't know where to start.
This episode is a comprehensive breakdown of the best forms of cannabis you can incorporate into your life and my fave products for expecting mamas. Honestly, I should've done this episode sooner and I wish I had a resource like this for myself when I was pregnant with my first kid in 2015. But it's here now and I am so happy to provide it for you. Don't forget to tap into the products mentioned in the episode listed below.

Our favorite OBGYN is back on the Blunt Blowin' Mama podcast! Dr. Genester Wilson-King is chatting with Shonitria about cannabis for menstrual cramps and dysmenorrhea, which are severe debilitating cramps. The doctor talks about using Aima's CBD-CBG suppositories, which is a THC-free water-based product for pelvic pain and menstrual cramps that is inserted vaginally for direct pain relief without any psychoactive or "high" effects.
And can a doctor drug test a pregnant patient without your permission? Dr. Wilson-King answers this question for us!
Does weed harm fertility, and should you stop smoking weed if you're trying to get pregnant? The doctor shares some advice!
Dr. Wilson-King provides helpful insight into how patients can handle encounters with rude or judge-y physicians and medical professionals.
She also lays out very clearly the best approach to drug testing at hospitals and if it's really possible to detox cannabinoids from the system before birth.
Having a board-certified medical professional on the podcast is always a pleasure. Y'all are gonna love this episode -- so happy to provide this resource :).

Happy New Year!!! Wow, it's 2024 :). But first let me (finally lol) tell you about my solo summer "Eat Pray Love" European vacation. I know I have been promising this episode for a while and now I spill every detail about my life-changing trip.
I had the most magical night in Marseille, France, on magic mushrooms... I spare no detail about how that night unfolded. I stayed up almost all night on shrooms as I listened to music and became reaccquianted with myself -- it's an evening I'll never forget.
And can you believe that when I went to Paris, I smoked weed in a club, got hella paranoid that people knew and left! Phew chile... so many stories I share with y'all in this episode. This trip was my first time travelling solo and honestly, it was just what my soul needed. Being a mom and having been in a relationship for over a decade, I had no idea how much I needed to get away from EVERY THING and EVERY ONE until I actually did it. I hope I inspire you to go do the thing that fills your cup up, too because you're worth it.

Sabrina is the California mom of two behind the popular Instagram account @Wholetmebeamom where she shares what it's like being a Latina cannamom married to her best friend. She joins the podcast to get real on her life as a stay at home mom who smokes weed. The cannamom influencer also reveals that she's been smoking weed since she was a teen, so it's always been part of her life. She also shares that her dad smoked weed (and sold it -- he was kinda big deal). His openness about his smoking cannabis gave her confidence to know that good parents can smoke weed. We also get into what it's like being married to a man who doesn't smoke weed -- spoiler alert: it's great, Sabrina says there's more weed for her! We also chat about weed's role during her postpartum healing and spark up for a lil sesh, too. Roll up and enjoy :).

This year has been a whirlwind for Blunt Blowin' Mama with lots of change -- all for the better :). I am happy to say that the Blunt Blowin' Mama podcast is back and will be back each week from here on out. No more breaks. No more interruptions. Before I jump into other topics and share episodes with upcoming guests, I wanted to talk with you one-on-one to let you know what I've been up to. It's been so long since I've recorded a solo episode of the podcast (like maybe a... year?) so that's a lot of tea to spill. From my move out of LA over the summer (yeah, I am revealing where I am living now) to my decision to end my relationship, I am not holding back on this episode. I missed y'all so much -- it's so good to be back!

It's May, and we are honoring mamas all month long on the Blunt Blowin' Mama podcast! If you have questions about cannabis use for motherhood or you just want an OB-GYN's thoughts on weed, this episode is for you. We are kicking off the month with a conversation about all the ways cannabis can help ladies be well from our menstrual cycle to pregnancy to menopause, we cover all the bases in this episode with Genester Wilson-King, MD, FACOG, who is a Board-Certified Obstetrician and Gynecologist with over 20 years of clinical experience providing compassionate and research-driven care to patients. It's so important to have board-certified medical professionals to share their insights on using cannabis and how to approach other doctors about it. Dr. Wilson-King founded the Victory Rejuvenation Center (VRC), a private holistic and integrative wellness medicine practice that provides life-transforming management modalities and customized medicines to patients.
She is also the vice president of the Society of Cannabis Clinicians, a non-profit that works to empower and educate healthcare providers on the use of cannabis medicine. As a member of the Special Advisory Board for ACHEM (Association for Cannabis Health Equity and Medicine), an organization focused on helping the BIPOC community in multiple areas of the cannabis movement. And finally, on the Board of Directors of Doctors for Cannabis Regulation (DFCR), the first and only national physicians’ association dedicated to the legalization and regulation of cannabis for adults. Plus, Dr. Wilson-King is a mom with adult children that she says still like coming around her which she says likely means she did a good job :).

Let's start with this: No one should be in jail for weed. It's 420 and it's only appropriate for Evelyn LaChapelle to be a guest on the podcast. Evelyn is a mom, cannabis advocate and business owner. She is also very open about her experiences within the legal justice system after being sentenced to 87 months in federal prison for depositing cannabis funds into a bank account. The California mom spent five years in the North Carolina prison across the country from her friends, family and her young daughter. She details the nuances of her release from prison that many people may be unaware of, like how she entered a drug rehab program in exchange for time off her sentence. It was in this program that she had to introduce herself as someone who was "addicted" to marijuana. While we all celebrate the plant each year on April 20, it's also important to take a moment to remember that this same plant was weaponzied against Black and brown people for years and the effects can still be felt today. Evelyn shares how she had to watch cannabis go legal in her home state and numerous other states across the country while she served time for it. We also get into how she and her daughter handled her incarceration -- which she admits was tough for them both, including her own mother who would fly across the county just so she could visit with her for 30 minutes. Depsite it all, Evelyn was able to turn her anger, frustration and passion into her business venture, 87 months and The Weed Lady. Follow Evelyn on Instagram @87months
