I'm glad you see that it canbhurt your baby and you don't need him sweetie espiccaly if he isn't willing to help you and join you on tour new parental journey. Your so strong for even admitting you had a problem. And I can tell you from experience that as long as you clean up your act now and that must include (unfortunately) citing out family and friends that use both your doc and cps will view this as youaturong on the behalf of your child stay strong sweetie we are all here to support you if u need it.

Ahh.  I'm really sorry sweetie.  I'm sorry you gave in and did it of course, but more so that this is the environment you surround yourself in.  Friends, partner, a home that there are people doing meth is NO place to take a child home to.  meth is a drug that gets in the air.  A child can just be in the home where it used and test positive for meth.  

If drugs are a part of your family lifestyle, then I ask you to get some help and make some pretty drastic decisions.  

Agree completely that you should tell your doctor for two reasons.  One, because it is better they know and don't find out some other way and Two, it is right that they monitor your pregnancy.  A baby doesn't need a mom who parties on Friday night with drugs or to be in a house where dad is high on meth.  And the incentive of keeping clean for your child may help you.  You need to be on people's radar so that your home is healthy for this child even after the pregnancy.  

I wish you all the best.  peace

I am a former addict and got clean when cps came and took my son away I now have custody back and will never touch that stuff again it is not worth it, it took me a year to get totally clean and now have been for more then a year my doc knows I used to do it and I'm sure they drug test me and what not but all I know is I can't go through losing another baby, my friend did I up until she was 25 weeks or so and he baby is fine but she regrets it everyday.

My brother just got locked up last week for it . Amd now his life amd his sons is going down hill .
U need to take care of ur child amd stop being selfish
Excuses are not valid .. amd if u do feel bad take the steps to let ur dr know amd stop smoking meth .
It won't stop until u stop . I've seen it . And I'm sorry but it's true .
