Best to get of befor: It is best for the baby that you gradually come of the morphine before you get pregnant , use some other method of pain relief.You are 31 yrs and have been on morphine for 5 years and at some stage you need to come off it the withdrawl symptoms for the baby can be severe and baby will need to go on meds for withdrawls and there are other effects like increased incidence of sids&other long term eff.

Recommend get off: Discuss with your doctor and work on a schedule to wean off of the morphine. The baby would be born addicted and would not be good for the baby.

Better off meds: But you need to heal the area that is causing the pains. Unstable ligaments i n the neck and back can be healed with prolotherapy and stop the need for pain meds. Go to www.Getproplo.Com or www.Aaomed.Org for info on prolotherapy and to find a doctor to help you. Good luck.
