I'm pregnant (32 weeks) and scared for my baby...

I am so worried for my baby...I read up on pain pills and pregnancy and find so many conflicting answers...someone please help me...
I currently take 4 to 5 Oxycodone/Hydrocodne 30mg a day. I started 2 yrs ago and have tried to ween myself off of them before, but wasnt successful. Now that I am prgnant, I worry about withdrawal and harming or miscarring my baby so I continue to keep doses regular in hopes that everything will be okay...I worry about delivery and my baby going through withdrawals...does anyone know what I am talking about??? Can someone please give me encouragement or advice or share with me what happened with their baby?

Hey sweety. I was pregnant recently and I did a LOT of meth and oxycontin during my first trimester of my pregnancy. I then got into a detox/treatment program to get me off. Then during my last trimester of my pregnancy I did a lot of suboxone.

My baby boy turned out healthy and perfect. (I don't know about future affects when he's older).

You need to go to a detox center and then a treatment program, it helped me stay off hardcore drugs, and it's been 11 1/2 months and I have not touched oxycontin or meth since!!!! Thank GOD to "American Behavior Health Systems" in Spokane, WA. That treatment center saved my life!
