Summary

With perinatal cannabis use rising in Canada, robust data on short-term and long-term effects on newborns are urgently needed. However, past barriers to obtain robust data included limited sample sizes, low self-reporting and no account of postpartum exposures. Therefore, this study will be conducted as a feasibility pilot study to tease out limitations that were present in previous studies. This study will help us dictate how to conduct a larger prospective cohort study to answer any knowledge gaps currently in the field of perinatal cannabis use.
