| Talk to your Sub doc about your cravings/ relapse, and like others have said, get back on your Sub, at a higher dose if necessary, ASAP. Do NOT report your relapse to your OB. If they have no suspicion of drug abuse they will not test the meconium. Don’t give them a reason to! |
I didnt like this advice.. IMO You SHOULD tell your OB right away. If anything happened to the baby from the relapse its better to know now, Also your OB should know all your history so if anything goes wrong they will know what to do.
ALSO.. Im from NY and the hospitals here do drug screens on you after delivery, My cousin just so happens to be a nurse and said the maconium test isnt routine but if they have suspicions they will do one. She said at some places being on Sub alone could give reason to make sure thats all you’ve been on just because it proves a history of drug abuse. But PLEASE be honest with your OB so your baby gets the best care, theres not much at all they can do about your relapse so you have nothing to worry about, but with that knowledge they can better care for your baby if something happens.. better to be honest now then have something come up later then you gotta tell the truth, that could force the test thinking your hiding stuff and could still be using. Good Luck.
