The full-time mum explained she\u00a0was prescribed medicinal cannabis by her healthcare provider before falling pregnant to treat her mental health problems and pain from an existing back fracture.<\/p>\n

Clarissa revealed she stopped smoking for three weeks with her first child, now 13 months old, but soon started again as she claims it was the only thing keeping her nausea at bay.<\/p>\n

The mum, who lives in New Jersey, USA, explained: "I was initially prescribed prior to pregnancy for my mental health and my back fracture pain.<\/p>\n

"I used it and I was like, 'Wow, my head's like finally clear for the first time and my back isn't killing me anymore!'<\/p>\n
