A member asked:

I'm 33 weeks pregnant and i was addicted to lortabs but i've been clean for almost two weeks. will my baby still be addicted when born?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably not: If you stay clean, and carry the baby to term, the baby will not have withdrawal symptoms when born.
