Pregnancy Help

[godshelp710]

Can somebody, anybody PLEASE help me! I am addict to prescription pain medicine and when I moved to another state and hadn't found a doctor yet I had a so called friend tell me to try heroin. Yeah I know not a friend if they tell you to try something that could be so harmful huh? Anyways I do not inject, nor snort either pills or H, I take both orally I know that doesn't matter I just don't want people assuming I use a needle or anything like that but anyways I found out I was pregnant, went to the doctor thinking I was around 12 weeks and found out I was further along, the baby and myself were fine thank GOD, normal weight all of that but where I was using the whole time I am scared to death my baby will have withdrawls and will be taken away from me! I came here for help so please don't judge. Honestly I do not do the drug to get high, I am in terrible pain from a bad car accident and kidney stones on top of that and found myself addicted where I was on the meds for so long but now what do I do? I was told if I quit now my baby could die from WD, who do I turn to? What do I do? I am scared to death of having to deal with CPS especially since NOONE in my family knows about any of this and the fear of my child being taken away from me, I work, I have a nice home, I will be a great mother but I need help and I need it fast whether it be from a nurse, a person in the same situation anything, anybody help me please!

Hi and welcome! Are you still using? How far along are you?  Your best option is to tell your doctor everything. You must not suddenly stop taking pills. You will have withdrawals and so will the baby. Please tell your doctor. They have seen this before and can advise you! Take care, please keep posting.

I NEVER EVER EVER suggest methadone clinics unless its THIS situation because methadone is safer(not safe but safer) for a baby than H
get on a low dose be honest and by the time the baby is born you wont have H in your system (hopefully) and the baby will w/d but atleast it will be safe
