is it bad for baby?

edited January 2011 in Pregnant
I'm embarrassed but need to know. I'm 28wks n I have a bad habit of scratching my nail Polish off my nails w my teeth n swallowing it eeeek I start to wonder if it harms baby. Doesn't the baby take in anything n everything mommy does? Help!

  • This is a habit II have when I haven't smoked marijuana for more than 24hrs I been trying to quit slowly n I am but can't keep my fingers out my mouth
  • Some maybe harmfull. Its not good either way... but there is away to stop they make a Polish that makes u keep ur fingers out uR mouth! And the smoking thing. Get u some candy like suckers an that will help u quit it worked for me..
  • Ooooh sounds interesting! Do you u kno what its called? The nail Polish. Thanks momma (=
  • Just don't wear nail polish. I'm sure eating that stuff isn't good for you. On the bottle it says flammable and such. If you can't stop it, just don't wear it.. better safe than sorry :)
  • I actually had a pretty easy time quitting pot. I was a fairly heavy everyday smoker (never cigarettes, thankfully) and I was actually stoned when I took my first pregnancy test. I quit that day. I gave what I had left to a friend and told my dealer that I'm pregnant. Just the knowledge that smoking pot could potentially hurt my baby was enough to make me quit. My husband doesn't smoke pot, so that makes it easier too. If your partner smokes, maybe he could quit or at least not smoke around you. Good luck!
