What did your OB say: I say no, esp in the 1st trimester that is not good, u need to find a way to get off the morphine asap and u will need to be followed by your OB and a perinatologist and be referred to wean off and stop the morphine.

Morphine : Morphine has been assigned to pregnancy category c by the fda. Morphine should only be given during pregnancy when benefit outweighs risk. In general, it's not recommended to continue narcotic in the first trimester.
