suboxone

I am just about 6 months pregnant, and in the beginning of my pregnancy I did take a quarter of a suboxone for pain and have not taken it again until yesterday. I feel bd about it and wish I never did it. What I would like to know is, if I do not do this any longer, will it still be able to be found in myself or my newborn baby when she is born? my due date is june 22, 2014. I would rather not have to deal with CPS. Any advice would help. thankyou.

Oops I guess occasionally it's prescribed for chronic pain. Still not safe while pregnant though.

Suboxone is meant for weaning off opiates not for pain and it's not safe for pregnancy.   It has a long half life so I'm not sure if it will be there or not. They say anything after 20 weeks stays in the meconium.
