Q: will marijuana and hydrocodone be detected in babies meconium at birth if i quit taking it at 14 weeks and 5 days? i would also like to know how sensitive is the meconium testing and how far back does the test goes back?

: Meconium begins to form as early as 12 weeks gestation or late at 16 weeks, so the drug screening test can be positive or negative.
