Wow. I was just reading about how this 25 yr old woman is so annoyed about how selfish these women are..WELL guess what we all have a sad story to tell with addicts in our life and that probably how we got here to be addicts as well but for you to try and make a mother or soon to be mother feel like sh*t about there selves because there searching for answers and help? It's ridiculous and you should be ashamed Of yourself. Go tell your sad story to someone else and let's save space for people who care to respond.i have much respect for women trying to do the right thing.no one is an angel
I would really love to talk its just hard with email my husband doesn't know anything yet I really need to talk to someone
You shoild be take advise from you doctor and after that you can think about these type of medication.
Wow...subutex is not the blocker and it does not have the blocker in it. Only suboxone have both. And it is not what is used by emts when people overdose..that's narcan. Before bashing someone else get your facts straight.

I know this thread is old but I hope someone can help.I just missed my period today and took a p.t and it's positive. I'm 31 years old and always wanted another baby (I have a 12 year old daughter too) but I've been on suboxone for over a year and I take 8mg a day for opiate addiction. I am soooo scared something is going to be wrong with my baby or I'm going to miscarry. I just had a miscarriage. In November and I'm wondering if the suboxone caused it. Can someone please tell me anything they know on this subject
hey I'm 31 and 16 weeks pregnant on suboxone. I don't think that the meds had anything to do with your miscarriage. try not to stress!
I found your story inspiring, so thank you. I just found out that I'm pregnant, I have a appt soon. My question is, I have been on suboxone for a awhile now 4-6mg(2yrs), I have gladly reduced my tolerance down to about an 1/16th- 1/8th. Which is great. I want to stop it completely, but 1. Afraid of harming baby, 2. I feel withdrawals (lightly) I feel like I can tolerate the withdrawls to quit in fact I know I can. But will it still harm my baby, even tho I'm taking such a low dose.. Please help!! I feel so guilty taking suboxone. Although it's a low low dose I don't want to harm my baby what should I do. Please!!!!!---Ashley
i see an addiction dr now, and am 20 weeks pregnant. he advised that the baby will be fine and to keep taking what he has prescribed. Also, my friend just had a baby last week and she is on it. baby is perfect.
I am currently off suboxone 6 days and pregnant. To go to work and function is hell
Hi, I just read your post about coming off of suboxone while pregnant and it made me feel 1,000% better. I take 1 sub a day (always at night, around 7:30-8pm) I never take it during the day. I started because of the Percocet I was taking for my knee pain.. but none of this was prescribed, it was a pride thing. So now I been on the subs for a little over a year, mainly just a mind over matter thing.. anyway I just found out that I am pregnant (4 Almost 5 weeks) and I cut my intake down from a whole sub to three quarters overnight, and I felt fine. I think I will be ok if i take a little less each night but I'm worried about the baby and not sure what I should do.
Hello,I have a friend that takes suboxen & subutex for the past 3 month .she don't take them everyday but when she she beak them in tiny little pieces.She is 6 months and has stopped taking them cause she does not want to hurt her and is

I'm just really scared and really nervous and all I do is stress myself out all the time thanks in advance for your assistance please no rude comments thanks
Wow I wouldn't have even admitted to all of that....I truly feel bad for your child and you probably shouldn't have one if you can't step TF away from the drugs... It's one thing to be on a program while pregnant so your Dr can monitor you it's another to just knowingly keep consuming pain killers and heroin.. smh there's ppl out there who can't have kids and you admit you basically got high the whole time.. which I'm POSITIVE your Dr wasn't okay with regardless of what you say... smh my advice to ANYONE struggling; if you have an addiction and you found out that you're pregnant then yes be honest with your Dr and get on a maintenance program and then request they wean you off after you give birth... Smh if u can't put your kid first and stop using illegal substances you shouldn't even be a parent Imo... Smh..and that's coming from someone who is 39 weeks pregnant and prescribed Subutex (legally bc I told my Dr my FIRST appt bc my son wasn't planned and I was apparently supposed to be unable to conceive even and I was nearly done weaning myself off of Suboxone bc I was a heroin addict previously and I wanted to stop I was literally down to 2 mgs but he was already dependent when I found out and I didn't want to risk a miscarriage) soooo I was honest with my doctor and I got the help I needed Im also currently the only one of all my friends with a completely healthy heavy baby boy w zero complications (knock on wood) I do NOT suggest anyone take this womans advice and continue to use your drug of choice through the Pregnancy that is definitely NOT sound advice and honestly I hope you got the help you obviously so desperately needed... I had a friend do that with her child amd her child was born with a deformity (he didn't have a rectum so the drs had to make one for him or maybe he has a bag idk I didn't ask) but again I don't recommend it and honestly lady I feel like you should be ashamed of yourself for using during pregnancy when there ARE resources you could've used to avoid all of that bc that's apalling and frankly selfish...
