Prevalence and correlates of a lifetime cannabis use disorder among pregnant former tobacco smokers
2016, Addictive BehaviorsCitation Excerpt :Cannabis is the third most commonly used substance during pregnancy following tobacco and alcohol (El Marroun et al., 2008; Gilchrist, Hussey, Gillmore, Lohr, & Morrison, 1996; Havens, Simmons, Shannon, & Hansen, 2009). Although rates of cannabis use tend to decline during pregnancy (Bailey, Hill, Hawkins, Catalano, & Abbott, 2008; Gilchrist et al., 1996), an estimated 11% of women continue to use cannabis during pregnancy, with over 16% of pregnant cannabis users reporting near daily use (Ko, Farr, Tong, Creanga, & Callaghan, 2015). Women who are younger, less educated, single, unemployed, socioeconomically disadvantaged, or belong to a racial or ethnic minority group are more likely to use cannabis during pregnancy (El Marroun et al., 2008; Ko et al., 2015) as are multigravid women and women with unplanned pregnancies (El Marroun et al., 2008).
Moderators and mediators of the relationship between receiving versus being denied a pregnancy termination and subsequent binge drinking
2016, Drug and Alcohol DependenceCitation Excerpt :An alternative explanation is that those who continue pregnancies experience a pregnancy/parenting-related reduction in alcohol consumption (Roberts et al., 2015). Pregnancy/parenting-related reductions in alcohol consumption are well documented (Alvik et al., 2006; Chambers et al., 2005; Ethen et al., 2009; Gilchrist et al., 1996; Tough et al., 2006). Our recent research found sustained reductions in any and binge alcohol use among women who continued compared to women who terminated pregnancies (Roberts et al., 2015), demonstrating a pregnancy/parenting-related reduction among women who continued pregnancies.

2015, Drug and Alcohol DependenceCitation Excerpt :Similar abstinence rates are reported among pregnant women with heavy alcohol use (Massey et al., 2011; Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, 2013). Offsetting the pregnancy-related decrease in substance use is the precipitous increase that occurs during the 6 months to one year after delivery (Ebrahim and Gfroerer, 2003; Gilchrist et al., 1996; Howell et al., 1999). For example, close to half of women who attain abstinence to smoking in pregnancy relapse within two weeks of delivery (Colman and Joyce, 2003), and 80% relapse within six months (DiClemente et al., 2000).
