No. There is no evidence that marijuana is associated with miscarriages. Marijuana has been used by millions in the US over the last several decades, including (undoubtedly) a lot of pregnant women. There is no evidence that it causes miscarriages, birth defects, or any other significant problem with babies.

There was also an extensive study in Jamaica of pregnant women who smoked marijuana heavily and found no evidence of any harmful side effects.

Although there have not been long term double blind studies on this, it is thought by some that it can have some negative effects which can contribute to miscarriage. All drugs, cigarettes, alcohol, caffeine, and exposure to chemicals should be avoided during pregnancy, especially during the earliest months. Always with illegal drugs in the US, you can not be sure of what you are getting, so there could be additives put in the marijuana that would be especially harmful to you and to the baby. Don't risk it.

Yes, any foreign chemicals can be potentially dangerous to a pregnancy. With illegal drugs in the US, you don't even know what it is you are getting. Marijuana may be laced with other more harmful drugs or chemicals. Cocaine can be a major factor in miscarriages. Extacy (X) is known to have been involved, again you never know what is actually in the mix, so don't risk it.

Probably not, however using the stuff on a regular basis while pregnant will and may also result in causing damage to the physique and brain of an unborn child. Is it worth the risk?
