It is dangerous to stop opiates cold turkey while pregnant !!!  May lead to miscarriage.

Speak to your doctor as soon as you can.

I would talk to your doctor prior to quitting just to get her advice about it!

I had a daughter 9 months ago and I took hydrocodone daily while pregnant. No I am not proud of it and wish I had never done that. She turned out healthy but that is not always the case so you should talk to your doctor about it. I would also say stop taking them if you can as it is not worth the worry I went through during my pregnancy. Good luck to you!

15 mgs isn't much for a daily dose. Just stop..Yes, it will affect the baby as its in the baby's bloodstream to..Just get away from the pills now. Before you develop a serious problem. And it will get worse
