she is drugging a baby. i definitely think she needs to stop cold turkey if she wants to protect this baby. i cannot believe someone who is pregnant would continue to abuse the drug like that. im sensitive to this because my brother has been addicted to this and has been in rehab for abusing this drug. this is horribly dangerous for both her and her baby.

Do you mean oxycodone.  That is the medical term for percaset.  Does her doc have any idea that she has been taking this?  It depends on how much, how often, and how long she has been taking this in order for her to get it out of her system.  I would talk to the doctor ASAP to find out if they will want her to quit cold turkey or slowly cut back.  This is drugging the baby!!

Oxytocin is a hormone our bodies naturally produce.

If your friend is using, she needed to stop when she found out she was pregnant.
