Hey girl, so glad and happy for you !!!
Subs is not a cure, but certainly a great substitute in your situation : )
Honey, dont be upset, you have done the right thing : )
Now, its time to enjoy your pregnancy.
Nobody wants to be in this situation, your maternal instincts have probably kicked in and so this is why you have concerns...
I was also going to say, its not advised to take Suboxone during pregnancy, pregnant women must take Subutex instead. As your doctor is not so familiar with Subs, its a good idea to question swapping to Subutex instead : )
You must keep going to your doctor for regular appointments, you will also more than likely get more ultra-sound's than the standard woman, because your on maintenance Subs, this is a good thing !!!
Generally, when a woman reaches 20 weeks pregnant, its pretty safe to say bubby will be ok and chance of miscarriage is reduced greatly.
How is your partner feeling now towards you? Is he happy you are on Subs or still feeling the same ?
Well, we are all so proud of you, try and de-stress yourself and enjoy your tummy : )
Take care..
huni i am very proud of you. I know how hard it was to tell the truth to
the doctor. you did awesome. you were very brave.
you have a great doctor, he is being supportive and helpful, exactly as he should be.
please attend some substance abuse support groups.
thank you for updating us.
congrats on your pregnancy.
And also you might want to ask them if they can change your suboxin to subutext because vthe narcon isn't supposed to be good for the baby. I was on it when I got pregnant and thats why my doctor changed it to subutext sorry just wanted to mention that because I know my doc switched mine asap after doing a pregnancy test
Good luck to u girl what you did takes a lot of guts and it means you truly love your baby more than your old selfish ways so proud of you. Just try not to be to hard on yourself your baby will be fine and since you were honest about what was going on and are getting help you have nothing to worry about with cps or anything like that. Good for you, and just to let u know l also am 11 weeks pregnant and I am on subutext so we have some things in common lol and also I have a 2 1/2 year old that I was pretty much in the same situation as you when I got pregnant with her and was on subs throughout my pregnancy with her so if u ever need to talk I'm here new to the site so I'm on here pretty much all time lol
No, I don't have any other children, thankfully.
You should feel very proud honey! I know that had to be very hard, good for you! I'm so glad you have a plan, and what sounds like a pretty cool doctor!
This may be the very very best thing that ever happened to you....do you have other children? Sorry if I missed that already!
