A member asked:
How sensitive is meconium testing in the early trimester? if i quit smoking at 14 weeks 5 days and havent smoked since and im 29 weeks pregnant will it be in my unborn babies meconium at birth?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Meconium begins to form at ~12-16 wks gestation and you quit smoking at 14-15th week so there is still 50/50 chance that nicotine will be detected in the meconium at birth.
