A lot of incense and possibly marijuana..

http://www.babycenter.ca/thread/1601401/a-lot-of-incense-and-possibly-marijuana

I am so sick and upset right now... 2 months ago we had to move in with my SO's parents and his 16 year old brother. Our rooms are all on the same floor within feet of each other and his brother burns incense in his room at least twice a day, in the morning before he goes to school (while my 4 year old son and I are still sleeping) and at night when we are in bed and sometimes more than that. It smells so strong to me! I have suspected he lights it to cover up marijuana and brought it up to my SO who is unconcerned and I feel like killing him!! I am pro marijuana when it comes to use in adults for therapeutic or medicinal purposes, but I DO NOT want it anywhere near me or my children! My hubby says "the smoke is not as bad a cigarette smoke" even if it's not as bad it certainly is not good! Anyways tonight the smell of incense was really strong when I walked by his brothers room on the way to mine to go to sleep and I started to feel light headed and sick just like when I used to smoke and hadn't had one for a while, the head rush. Anyways, I search up about the incense just out of curiosity and find out that when burned regularly in a non ventilated area it can be just as bad as cigarette smoke!!! I am so mad at myself for allowing this to go on for 2 months now, my 4 year old and my pregnant self breathing this in regularly! I quit smoking for this baby and even before that I smoked outside to spare my son's lungs and now I feel like my efforts to keep my children and myself healthy have been shattered. My hormones are raging and I feel so mad I want to punch my SO for not caring as much as I do. I don't know what to do when no one here seems to respect my wishes..

do you speak your mind to the kid and parents?\
if no one dose anything then you have to move out or force the issue.
if you cant do any of the above.... get a gas mask and beat your SO, man , hubby, bf, gf....

This!

Your boyfriend moves you, himself and a baby into his parents house and you expect them to change for you? Funny thing about being a guest in someones home...you don't get to make the rules. I wouldn't be mad at your SO for not backing you up in your attempt to set the rules...I'd be pissed he can't or won't get you your own place.

Buy him a smoke buddy and ask him to crack the window a bit. I started using one and it works pretty well.

my place=my rules...don't like it move.
i don't get why they come from a bad place to a good place & then demand change. what happened to being grateful?

Or go one step further and stick a small fan in the window to actively suck the smoke out of his room.

Rules of the house are set by the owners.

@TheDizzyBizzy They may be trying to respect your wishes by using incense. Share your pro pot feelings with them in a positive way.

Unless you're hot boxed in that room, your inhalation will never amount to enough to affect your baby. Just because you can smell it doesn't mean it's dangerous. Also, your senses may well be heightened due to;
A. you recently quit smoking
B. Just being pregnant brings hormone changes that affect your sensitivity
C. uncertainty about your new surroundings and a psychological need to have some control over your environment/situation

The fact that you quit smoking for your baby is commendable.

If they can stick a small exhaust fan in the window to create 'negative pressure', the smoke won't back up into the house, and voilá! No smell, everyone's happy.
