I agree with the whole selfish mother thing and don't put an innocent child in danger for your OWN pleasure. So that would have to be the smartest thing I've EVER heard CPS say. *Claps* Your company does have at least one person with one legit opinion. Yippie! ;-)
Anyways...I must say that a child with CPS is no better than the crack w**** on the corner. Seriously. The state can't take care of it's own people. So someone should give up their rights of their child to a state that could care less what happens to its own people? NO! That is crazy to even think let alone say! Take a look around, all the sick, hungry, homeless, poor, all the people who the system ( your system is guilty as well) has chewed up and spit out! And yet, you WORK for them, you are a slave to the system. Swallow that pill!
Next time you go in and ruin a perfectly good home, let this swim around your brainwashed brain,"You WORK for your state, your state DOES NOT work for you!"
I seriously do not know how you guys spend your dirty money, but next time you buy your child a gift or a family member or hey, even a friend, remember who paid for it. That AMAZING mother who sits and cries herself to sleep every night missing her newborn infant. And where is her newborn infant? In a home, you put him in and "approved" of, oblivious to the fact that those foster parents are in the back room drinking beer and smoking weed while the baby is laying in his bed crying. No one is perfect. Not even you, get off your high horse and get a real job. Try working for yourself before your state chews and spits you out!
Love & Light to you,

OK I am a concerned mother and I smoked my whole pregnancy only because it was the only thing that kept me from throwing up and it helped me eat so much better. I did it after the fact of researching it online. Most websites said that I was right and that it did help you gain a great appetite and help you with morning sickness, so i started using the drug only so I could eat and make sure I was getting in the amount of food needed for my child. I didn't do it for my benefit but only for my sons benefit. I was even took to the hospital before I started using the drug because I was throwing up so bad I could not eat anything at all and even after they gave me meds to calm it down that still didn't work at all, so that's when I started using. I gained a great appetite and gained all the weight back I had lost and I was getting very healthy from what my doctor said and he also said I would be having a very healthy baby boy. I am just worried because I did this only trying to make sure my son had a good growing chance and because when I went to the hospital they told me if I didn't stop throwing up so much the baby could have disabilities and it really worried me and that is honestly the only reason I did it and I even have records from were I went to the hospital for it, but now I am about to have my son in two days and i stopped smoking a little bit ago and i am pretty sure they will test my son because two days ago I went to the hospital having contractions and when I got there the nurse made my family stay in the waiting room till I was ready and told me when I got in the room to change and to pee in a cup they had in the restroom so I did, not thinking anything of it and came out and let her hook me up to the monitors and she began asking all the questions to get me admitted in and I answered all of them. after she checked my cervix and hurt me because she had very long nails and i swear she did it purposely probably because of the information she was about to tell me. Well while she was walking off she then turned back to me and said "Oh by the way we will be testing your urine for THC" and walked off. I was shocked and got scared right off the bat because I don't want my son took from me because I am not a bad mother at all. She came back in about an hour later and told me i failed and told me cps would be called and i asked what would happen and she said she didn't know and that it was not under her control and after that she checked me once again to see if I had changed any and hurt me once again with her long nails scrapping against my insides and then walked out and called my doctor I am guessing and he said i could go home because I was not making any changes but I want to know peoples opinion.
Well said lady!!! Took the words right out of my mouth. No one has the right to judge a book by its cover. There's only one true judge and that's God, so chill, and let my Father do his job.You keep on speaking your mind girl.I'm glad there are still people in this world who aren't afraid to speak the truth.
I must tell you that I have to give you a round of applause for your powerful thoughts. I couldn't agree with you more! Its about time someone speaks up and tells it like it is. We need more people like you who aren't afraid to speak the truth and be a voice for those who have none.Keep it up!
I switched doctors and they r giving me a drug test I smoked like 20 days ago and i also told the nurse i never smoked any drugs but i stoped at 5 & half months pregnant and have 3 and a half months left will it be out my babies stool
you girls make me sick. i quit smoking cigarettes cold turkey as soon as i found out i was 5 weeks pregnant. its not hard to quit if you realize another ones life is in danger and ITS NOT ABOUT YOU ANYMORE! my baby was born with a heart disease and passed away 2 weeks ago. I did everything right through my whole pregnancy and lost my baby boy. its pieces of sh*t like you that have perfectly healthy babies and its not fair. so if i were you and anyone else even doing something minor to harm your child, DONT. anothers life is at risk and you shouldnt be so selfish to keep doing your recreational drugs just because you dont want to quit.
Ok this is completely mis-understood information, there is absolutly NOTHING wrong with smoking weed. NOTHING. and before I get all these hateful replies, I want everyone who thinks they know the damage of what smoking weed can do to babies to read two things. go to google, and type in "Earth Mother Affect" and you'll find that in many studies smoking weed actually helps your baby inadvertantly. Because weed does NOTHING to the development of children, but it calms the mother down and in doing so makes for a much more nuturing environment for babies, and a woman who is a front runner for this.."MIRANDA DREHER" look that up. Look up the facts, just because the government says it's illegal doesn't make it wrong. When we have such a sick society how can we measure health? "The Highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don't know anything about" - Wayne Dyer. Just putting it out there, maybe we shouldn't put moms under the bus so much, and realize that there is MUCH bigger problems in the world. Like our schooling system. you get so concerned about being pregnant and bringing this child into the world only to feed them to the government to make them deaf and dumb. Hypocritical if you ask me!
They did not take my daughter from me because they saw no signs of abuse or any worry for my family. I'm married and have an older daughter as well... do your homework.
I have a family member that smoked weed and stopped but they tested her and her baby and they both tested positive. The tested his bowel sample. Now CPS is investigating her... So just some information to all of you, it WILL show up in the childs poop and if you test positive they WILL test your child..... Why would you want to smoke weed while you are pregnant?? That child did not ask to be brought into this world and it sure does not deserve to have to possibly go through withdraws because of something YOU did... Think about your child, be a mother, and stop the stupid stuff... You are suppose to love your child not put drugs in its system.....
I was pregnant and was taking pain medication. I felt guilty and tried to stop on my own and could not. I did tell my Dr. and I cried in his office and I felt that he would think I was a horrible mother and be very disappointed in me because he would have never expected this of me. I read many posts like this when I didnt know what to do. Keep quiet or tell my Dr. and take the consequences. I knew it was best to tell while I was under a doctors care so they could make sure the baby was ok and get me the best help possible. I chose to start suboxone the last month of my pregnancy. My baby is perfect and since I was honest and got help before the birth, the pediatrician didn't even request the baby be tested and social services was not called at all. SO it pays to be honest and upfront. And if there is someone reading this bc they were in the same place that I was trying to figure out what to do, do not bother reading the posts that ppl put on her that are judging you or saying you do not care about your baby. I cared and I was terrified for my child but I had a substance abuse problem that I needed help with. If you are on here, you care. now take the next step and tell your Doctor. They want to help you stay healthy so your baby can be healthy.
This is all I have to say on the matter of drug testing newborns...my sister smoked meth up til her eight months of being pregnant and her kids didnt fail they drug test. Now then night before she went into labor she had taken a nerve pill and it did show up in her youngest sons screen. I dont agree on her drug use but her child was not taken she was just watched by cps and had to complete a rehab.
