[quote=Anonymous]I am pregnant with my first child. I live in a luxury apartment complex that has a clear no smoking policy. New neighbors moved in about five months ago and there has been frequent weed smells wafting through the hallway and into the adjoining apartments; sometimes daily and other times 3-5/week. I've reported this to management/concierges and was asked to report each time it happened because they've received numerous complaints from my floor and others about the smell (which is so strong). I was told by the complex that they were working on getting legal documentation from the reports made from tenants to pursue eviction and they now know which unit it is coming from.The smell seems to exacerbate my morning sickness, is so strong, and I'm becoming increasingly concerned about negative health consequences to the fetus from the second hand smoke that lingers.

My question is WWYD as a pregnant women in my situation? My lease is not up until early next year but I was planning to stay longer if the weed smell is remedied. I do have a health condition for which I was told to avoid scents/smoke, plus a high risk pregnancy, neither of which I have told the complex about. My question is would you wait this out and hope the eviction goes through and continue to report to management/concierge, look for other options to escalate (e.g., I'm trying to figure out if this is something for example I could report to the police given the non-smoking building policy or if there are local ordinances against this), or just cut your losses and move out early (there would be substantial fees for breaking the lease early)?

FWIW, I do have two large Honeywell air purifiers running and the smell still hangs around for quite some time after each occurrence. [/quote]
