oxycodone user. 1-2 15 mg pills a week maybe every other week.
If none are used the last 9 weeks will the small amounts used show in baby or baby's stool ?
Stopped completely at 31 weeks pregnant. Please no judgement not prescribed obviously does not know and I don't plan on telling them I have no withdrawal baby has been fine during checkups since stopping.

Yup it will show up for sure when they test his/her first stool. You need to be honest, and if you're taking such a strong pain killer well you're pregnant and you know it's wrong and they aren't prescribed then you may need to seek some help. I remember when I first came here when I quit using oxy it was a huge help. BUT it's wasn't enough, you need outside help as well. I've been off oxy for a year and a half and still go to AA meetings 2-6 times a week. Seek help for you and your babe. I'm not judging you, honest I've been exactly where you are. Them couple will always turn into a couple more and a couple more and so on....

Is there a reason you were taking pills?  The best and safest way is to be truthful with your OB as if there are surprises at birth CPS will step in.
