Fetal withdrawal: Yes, you can have children. However, if you are on methadone when you deliver, the baby will be addicted, too, when it is born. The baby will need to spend several weeks in the hospital to allow the methadone to get out of its system, safely. The healthiest thing to do, is to get yourself off of methadone, first.
