[QUOTE="Jensbee, post: 410428, member: 11271"] Thats ok, its a natural question. No, there wasn't any fetal exposure to alcohol. When I found out I was pregnant, I was taking a prescribed dose of suboxone. Both OB and prescribing doctor said that it would be very dangerous to stop the medication all at once. OB switched me to buprenorphine only and completely weened me off of everything by week ten of pregnancy. At birth he was screened and tested extensively and no adverse problems were found and I took him home from the hospital after two days. Our pediatrician has told me that children of mothers who were on a opiate maintainence program throughout their entire pregnancy have a higher likelihood of adhd. When I mention and ask him about this, he tells me that genetics and environment play a much larger role in kids who display this kind of behavior in our case. Except for being socially immature there have been no issues with his development. For the family tree, there is history of mental illness and the peditrician knows this as well. Thanks for the welcome. [/QUOTE]
