Possibly: Your child may have issues with narcotic withdrawal after birth. Make sure the pediatrician at the hospital knows mom was on Vicodin and have them watch your baby closely. Withdrawal can be managed easily if picked up early enough. If you have questions you can ask your OB to refer you for a neonatology consult before birth to discuss what to expect at your hospital. Good luck.
