    Babies aren’t “addicted” to anything at birth. They can go through withdrawal if their mother was using drugs.
    Withdrawal does not equal addiction.

    i dont think that thats possible i dont think pot is chemically addictive just mentally so i dont think it can happen

    I don’t think there is a physical addiction to Marijuana…

    Hm I could be wrong but I thought that a person could not be addicted to marijuana. The mother I guess could be emotionally addicted but not physically if that makes sense. So, there would be no way for the baby to be addicted to marijuana.

    There is none, because there is no withdrawal from THC. And unlike alcohol, there is no typical set of problems associated with use of marijuana in pregnancy.
