Hi I have questions is there any way you could contact me on here if you see this. Wanna know if you had this question answered please contact me
Hi I was wondering how your baby boy is and how was he when you gave birth to him? Was he withdrawing long or in pain in any way when he was born
Its very hard to read these comments and not be judgemental but I wont be its best to talk to the dr they will test your blood and babies and will call cps if positive most babies will have withdrawls and other long term conditions learning disabilities and even deformities heart conditions so be honest with your dr now to help your baby in the long run... good luck ladies and wish you all healthy babies
Yes they will know..there will also be other signs that will tell them of your drug abuse through pregnancy.
I'm 32 weeks pregnant ive been using heroin for most of my pregnancy will this be in my baby's poop if I stop asap
Hi I am 32 weeks pregnant and use per covet and oxycontin I'm too scared to do this at a detox after hearing all about cps getting involved but I'm also terrified that my withdrawal can hurt my unborn child...I see you used ur whole pregnancy also up until a couple weeks before birth...Did u just quit at home or through a doctor and what happened when u gave birth?...Please respond I am terrified!!!
I'm about 25 weeks pregnant and have been using hydrocodone and percocet throughout my pregnancy maybe 4 a day some days I will go without, my question is, if I quit now will my baby have it in his system? I don't want any judging reply, I just want an honest answer, I'm afraid of getting my baby taken away, but I have such bad pains that some days I can't even get out of bed. So if they test his poop will he test positive for opiates?
Did u have your baby yet? How did it turn out? What state are you in?
I told my doc I was useing and they told me to keep useing until
I seen a subutext doc so I didn't withdrawl but they said my baby will withdrawl when he's born from the subutext and they said nothing will happen to him he will be fine I really hope they are not lying about that
How long were taking the Vicodin before you stopped taking it?
What happened in your dilivery and what did you use?
I have used during my whole pregnancy until about a week ago
I'm due jan17th and was wandering if my system nd my babys system
will be clean will i b able to bring my baby home?? Please help I'm verry
concerned.
did u have the baby yet? and did his or her system come out clean?
I know that this post is very old, but I can answer it very honestly.. for anyone who may need to know. I took Vicodin at 35 weeks, it was parscrined by my on. I DIDNT WANT IT IN MY SYSTEM OR MY BABIES AT BIRTH. So. I had obstained from Vicodin for 10 days, and my baby was urine tested at birth, so was I... neither of us had it in our system. BUT, I had used very briefly, and had no withdrawal due to my brief use. With my prior pregnancy, I was a methadone patient and my baby was in the n.I.c.u for 24 days.. please don't allow that for you or your child. Its better to stop in your second trimester.. in a safe way.
I am curious I'm 29 weeks pregnant and due dec 4th i have stopped taking oxycotin just recently will it be out of my baby system by then
Please go to your doctor. Did you flat out quit or did they treat you through the withdrawal process? Regardless, are you going to OB/Gyn visits regularly because they would be able to tell you the effects that using has had on your baby thus far- if any. I am no expert but I would advise you to have a medical professional work with you in this and be your hands on support. You did very good by quitting but you only quit a few days ago so please get in contact with someone who can help you maintain this sobriety. All the very best to you and just keep thinking POSITIVE thoughts. You did very good quitting.

I am,35 week and I stop using opiates 2 weeks ago I was on subutec and this week I just stoped that my doctor told me I could he drug tested my blood today and I was clean my baby is going through urtal withdrawal but my doctor says that for my baby to withdraw inside my uterus is so much better than for me to give birth to him and him to withdraw because it inside my uterus here is my air and uses my blood n even know my baby is going to destress it would be so much better at the end but I would not do this unless you're under doctors care which I have been my whole pregnancy
Doctors have a "duty to inform". They won't just keep it a secret if a mother is abusing any kind of drugs while pregnant. I seen a lot of women go through this. Your baby's safety is #1, don't expect CPS not to get involved though, because like i said, your doctor has a "duty to inform" and "keep the baby safe", so as much as we'd like to hope that our meetings with Dr are confidential, in these matters, they are not. And they do a test called (meconium, they test the baby's poop) and drugs can come up in this test pretty far back.
i recently had a baby boy i took one vike and went in to labor the next day prior to that i was clean i do have a history with heroin and i have marks they tested me i came up dirty then they tested the baby he was clean bcuz they say the fetus gets such a small amount wen u do opiates but the hospital put my son on morphine anyway and a large amount .26 insted of the normal .19 and sent him to a another hostpital wear they told me he should of not bin put on meds so i asked the original hospital y they did and they said they werent sure if he was withdrawing and they did it for the transport and y they gave him so much was bcuz he was 8 lbs and most babies born with wd are 3-5 lbs does anyone think i should try to sew my son was in there for 2 and 1/2 weeks becuz they gave him such a big dose and i had to put up with cys and **** i never lost custody but i had to do a bunch of bull **** what should i do and the bottom line they made my son withdraw wen he wasnt
Good for you, asking for help. That can't be easy. Agree with the others here -- the next step is talking to your medical professional.
Very best of luck to you.
Totally false the baby will have it in his or hers system it has no where to go except when the baby poops and that isnt until the baby is born so ur best off telling someone this is very serious and u should be gettin help ur gonna hurt this baby not urself thanks
There are safe ways to withdrawal but they require doctors supervision. I highly recommend seeing a nutritionist that specializes in addiction too. They can recommend supplements that will replace the things that the drugs took from your system and will help the baby replenish what it hasn't been getting. Opiates are tricky and one of the most dangerous substances to withdrawal from or be addicted to. The drain on your system can last 9 months after you stop using them. This is why it is important to see a nutritionist right away...for your health and your baby's. You don't have 9 months for your body to heal. I would also seek help for addiction since opiates are the most addictive substances and the hardest for people to recover from. The chances of returning to them is very high. Good Luck.
I totally agree w/Yvette - in fact pointing out that withdrawals from opiates was something that my pain management doctor and I talked about before I got pregnant (he talked about that very thing - withdrawal causing fetal demise - especially in 3rd trimester).
Check only w/your physician on this one - it's evaluated case by case - best of luck to you!
