How Long Will Oxycodone Be Present In A Placenta (Page 4)
UpdatedI am 36 weeks pregnant and about a week ago i tested positive for opium when my doctor drug tested me. I took what i thought was a over the counter pain med cuz my back went out but apparently my "friend" had given me a 30 mlg oxy. now child protective services are involved and i was told once my child is born they will test the placenta for drugs and was wondering how long do oxys stay present for that kind of testing? please help i dont want to lose my kids.
I also have been using on a regular basis, not every day but a few times a week sometimes not at all. I took 30mg oxycodone yesterday and I'm afraid my doctor may want to induce sometime this week. I don't go through withdrawal because I space out the medications, but I am so scared my baby will be taken from me. I have been scared for months and tried to stop many times but always find myself saying this is my last one... And please no judgment!
I'm about 35 weeks pregnant. Been using Percocet on and off. The first 4 weeks in, I didn't know I was pregnant. I stopped. At about 12 weeks maybe, I took some percs and that was just one day. I stopped for weeks after that. Then i relapsed again at about 5 months along. The usage wasn't necessarily heavy but continued for maybe a week. Stopped again. Relapsed again and it was heavier but maybe lasted a week or week and a half, stopped for about a few days, then it went on for another week. Stopped for another couple weeks then went kinda heavy for 3 days and am stopped for good now. Dr knows about it and everything. My question is what is the outcome for the baby? What will CPS do? I heard he won't get taken away as long as I have been clean from hear on out and am doing treatment. Only catch is they are aware of only this recent incident and the incident about 4 months ago. I'm flipping the hell out right now....idk what to do. The thing is also, he hasn't stopped kicking at all. He might've gotten sleepy and slowed down. I'm currently seeking the help I need. Just wanna know what's next......
Please tell me how you made out
hi im in the same boat as you guys I m 9 weeks and I really need to stop.. Sometimes I feel like having an abortion too but I cant I need serious help I believe
For all the people being judgmental a**holes about this subject... I Dont condone taking pain meds or and prescription meds while you're pregnant for an addiction problem HOWEVER there are many reason a pregnant woman needs to take them in certain situations. If the medical risk outweighs the risk of meds then they will prescribe them.. I had horrible kidney stones during my pregnancy and it was safer for me to take the meds (perc 10s) and reduce the pain than it was to stay in pain and put extra stress on the baby. Doctors will prescribe them if its needed. So everyone saying you absolutely cannot take them are very wrong. I took them the the entire 2 & 3 trimester and my baby boy was born perfectly healthy and withdrawal free. People need to know facts before they start throwing out their opinions. Even when people have an addiction problem you are not advised to quit cold turkey when you find out you're pregnant. That could also cause death for the child due to the dramatic change and withdrawals the mother will endure... Be smart and only take any meds prescription or not while carrying and be smart about the amounts some children will be effected by them some won't. The risk is not one worth taking!!!
I'm very scared.having fear, reading way to much and need to know the actual truth.plz reply..
Hi I need any information you can give me please.
Hi i dont know if you still check this but I have a question about delivering while on subutex. Can you plz write me back.. {edited for privacy}
Doctors prescribe pain medication all the time when there are other alternatives. I am not judging you, I've had my struggles with addiction. A few years ago i severed a tendion in my ankle, (very painful). Because I am an addict, I was not willing to take a chance of becoming addicted to pain pills, they are highly addicting. I discussed this with the doctor and he did my surgery with a nerve block and sent me home with a pack that time released the nerve block medicine. Dont believe that just because a doctor prescribed it to you then it must be okay right. Get information on how opiates and other pain medications will effect you and your unborn child and make your decision equipped with knowledge.
How far back will they test the placenta
Ive been taking at least 60 mg morphine a day for 2 months and am currently 31 wks pregnant and was wondering if i stop now will baby be okay
When did you finally completely stop taking the medication before you gave birth ?
What was your outcome at birth?
This message is very helpful. It have lifted me up. I understand what the lady is going thru. Thanks for your help!!!! Might need to keep talking to you. :) :(
I am 26weeks pregnant, I have chronic pain and been prescribed oxycodone my entire pregnacy...if I ween down to only a few 10 mg oxycodone s a day, will my baby have withdrawls
Almost same situation as me, i need answers too.
Are you stupid? When you're pregnant your uteris and cervix is closed off so his sperm doesn't even go anywhere near your baby. The only way oxycodone will be in your baby's system is if you are the one taking it. Duh
Your best bet (i too am a recovering addict and have relapsed before) seek counseling and maybe some maintenance meds. They don't just rip children from their mothers. Cps tries to preserve the family in most cases. If you seek help, that always looks good for you..
I was taken pain meds found I was pregnant stoped but was ten weeks before I found out I gonna ben in trouble
This post is from a while ago but needed to comment because of the distasteful, uneducated, and indelicate judgmental responses from people who do not understand chronic pain in pregnancy. unfortunately, people who pass tasteless judgement on pregnant women whom suffer from chronic pain or malignant pain (cancer) are ignorant for having the audacity to pass nasty judgement of any kind. There's always a risk and many variables to factor. In regards to the comment that women who require pain medication to function should not have children; how low are you! Women who need pain medication, don't take it lightly. Im pregnant and have a 2 year old soon. Due to chronic illnesses I need pain relief to just get up and moving. I used to cry and worry for fear of harming my child and the scrutiny uneducated society. All whom have commented attacking post for sharing-SHAME ON YOU.. It's called empathy people. I pray to all whom passes judgement never suffers from debilitating pain pregnant or not. And I would bet to all of you who says who wouldn't, I bet when you have pain so bad you can't breathe 24/7 you'll be screaming a different tune!! Read peer review articles and educate yourself and leave hateful, attacking comments for yourself people. If you need pain management while pregnant talk with your OB and see a high risk. Don't let anyone make you feel degraded for making a decision that the risk out weigh the benefits.
