To all pregos on suboxen I wanted to share my story, but it has to be quick bc i have to go to work. I got pregnant w my 3rd baby while I was on Methadone pills not liquid. Pills I bought off the street bc cheaper than perks. N E way took 20-40mg a day. Unexpected pregnancy, have two other kids,but wasn't on N e thing w them. My husband didn't know so I had two reasons that I had to get clean. My friend took me to sub dr, bc i was on a low dose on meth he started me on 2mg once a day of sub, had to wait for wd symptoms to start. After 5 days went to 1mg and then off. I have to say the first 5 weren't great but NOTHING like cold turkey. Really just anxiety about the unknown and waiting for sickness to kick in but never did. Once I was off completely tired but who isn't tired prego,2 kids and working. My daughter was born in MAY and was and is PERFECT.By the way I was 18 weeks pregnant when I started suboxen. She is 6 months now crawling, laughing and is a BEAUTY!!!!!!! NOT one withdrawl symptom. Don't stay on sub longer than 14 days. Start and wean quickly. All the people I have asked and all research shows the quicker the better-for those who need to get off and not do a maintence. Maintence is different. Hope this helps.... GOOD LUCK MOMS. You can do N E thing if you put your mind to it.

heres the deal i used to smoke around 4 80's everyday now im about once a week i binge on 3 80s in a 2 day period then buy a bupe and eat like 2 mg a day but my main problem is every time i try and quit i always go back because of the cold sweats at work i cannot get anything done because the second i try and lift something i start to sweat then im cold but when i smoke a half or something my body temperature is normal what can i do thats the only thing in my way my legs dont ache or anything after the subutex i want someone who has smoked oc to tell me whats up dont ask me well was it prescribed bla bla no i got it in the city just tell me how to get rid of sweats thankyou oh by the way those 12 step programs dont do shit there a joke its all about the feeling not the mental addiction

I have not touched any opiates or pain killers since April. I take subutex and vitamins, adderall and 2 migraine medications that are basically caffeine. My tox screen came back positive for morphine and I cannot figure out for the life of me how that is possible. Does anyone know if there is any other possible way for it to show up without having taken it? I eat an everything bagel with butter and plain cream cheese every morning! Oh my GOD!

I am also looking for info on babies born on suboxone.I was on methadone years ago and gave birth to a very healthy (but premature baby, born at 34wks) she had no withdrawl and was able to go home the next day. The hospital called child protective services, and i had to have my husband at the time sign my daughter out of the hospital and i wasn't allowed to be alone with her until they continued their investigation for 2 months and made sure i was following the clinic's rules etc.this time I'm on 16mg of Suboxone and I'm hearing conflicting stories. My boyfriend has no idea of the stigma that surrounds suboxone. and i'm SO afraid of the baby having withdrawl and the whole thing of being involved with child protective services again. it's so humiliating and degrading. i've even thought about trying to ween myself off of it in the next couple weeks so i dont have to go thru this again.has anyone attempted detoxing from suboxone during pregnancy? and how did you baby turn out after birth?

i hear it does and then i hear it doesn't.; which one is it and if it does show up how much until it clears out of someone's system

Hi, everyone I was reading over all of your comments about pregnacy and breastfeeding with the suboxone, it was so nice to hear some of your experiances of a drug that saved my life, with the help of the members of NA group in my home town. I was on suboxone the whole time I was pregnant taking 24mg a day, I gave birth to beatiful baby boy. He was born at 36wks, but my other to children where born early as well and I took nothing with them except vitamins. I did have alot of problems with the nursing staff at the hospital because they were uneducated about the medication, and they made what should have been a joyus time a time to say what a bad mother I am to have taken such a medication that is so harmful to unborn babies. My babys lungs were inmature due to his gestational age, and the specialist that came in reasured me that this was due to him being born early, but those nurses had there own oppionon, and you know what they say about oppionon there like a-holes everyones got one!
