*SMOKING OXY AND PREGO :(

Hi. Well im 26 weeks pregnant with my first child and im having a girl. And I have a problem, I have been smoking Oxycodone 30 MG on the tin foil for about a year now, during the first trimester I have not been smoking Oxy maybe a Hit or two here and there and i dont do it everyday. latley Ive been smoking but still not alot, maybe 6 pills a week. My boyfriend has them perscribed to him and gets about 160 a month, and when he gets his scripts i smoke about 8 during the weekend. I know what i am doing is wrong and i feel so guilty for doing this to my baby girl. I love my baby so much trust me i really do. I go the week without smoking anything and when the weekend comes i find myself getting high. In a smoking session I take about 4 or 5 hits. Nobody knows I smoke exept my boyfriend, yeah i know how bad that sounds, but he is totally against me smoking, Im the one that insist i do it, and if he doesn't give me any I will take from him and smoke a pill bymyself. Like I said I dont do it everyday, please dont judge me. I feel the guilt in my heart and believe me I am a good person with a good heart. But I juss want to know will my daughter be born slow or anything??? As of now i am not going to do oxy for the rest of my pregnancy. I need support from women who have been there and can help me!!!! but will my baby be born slow or have problems?????????? cuz i read that Oxycodone may NOT have any effect on the baby and HAS ANY ONE DONE OXYCODONE WHILE PREGNANT AND HAD A HEALTHY BABY AT BIRTH???? when i go to my doctors and ultrasound appointments the doctor says that my baby looks fine and she is the size that she is supposed to be. I juss want to stop doing what i am doing to my baby girl. she does not deserve any of it. but please ladies if you could help me out!!!!!! thank you so much!!!!!! pls help me!!!!!!!!!!

Smoking oxy's is more dangerous as it enters your bloodstream quicker.  You also become addicted to the smoking part.  I hope you will get some sort of recovery care as this will help you.......sara

You are very diplomatic (and very knowledgeable) Crys833 and should be applauded for that.  Good luck to you mommy - I wish only the best for you and your baby.  :)

Well,I think it is, on a number of levels. But,really,it's all bad for us if abused. The great thing here is that you saw the doctor,she's going to watch you (did you tell her you smoked it?),and you feel good today after 48 hours without the pills. I'm happy for you and I know it took a lot of strength to go in and push to see her and tell her about this.  It's clear you want the very best for your little girl!  

Keep posting and let us know how you're feeling. We all care very much!

Don't be confused. I know what we said but that's why she wants to monitor to you. She's being conservative but will handle anything as it comes up, I'm sure.  If you begin to feel anything "off", just call her.

Dr.'s orders always trump whatever is said on the forum.

UPDATE: okay so I went in to the clinic and spoke to the nurses and explained to them why I NEED to see a my doctor today, and after about half hour of waiting my doctor was able to see me. I told her about my using and she feels that i will be okay juss stopping all at once she does not want to put me on any other pill to help me get off oxy, she suggest that I just continue not to use anything But she wants to monitior me. Im confused yall said it is not safe to go cold turkey and my doctor suggest that thats what I do because I do not use that much oxy's. But isn't smoking it worse than taking it orally????? I just hope she is right... but I feel good right now I havn't smoked anything in 2 days.... i hope my daughter is okay....But that was doctors orders....
