16 weeks in 2 days will my babys meconium be clean when i,give birth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Meconium tests: Meconium starts to form about 12 weeks into pregnancy and additives will remain. The sensitivity off the test may or may not reach back that far.Meconium testing for drugs is not routine in most locations.It is a normal part of surveillance if someone has come to the attention of family services for previous drug use/family violence. If you stay clean they may have no reason to test.
