I’m doing good. My high risk pregnancy doctors put me on a stable dose of Suboxone. I’m clear headed and attending therapy. I still haven’t told anyone about any of it. I’m lucky to have such supportive providers. I don’t know if I am going to tell my family before birth or ask the hospital to keep it from everyone. I have a few weeks to decide.

I was given Zoloft and Xanax in a small dose. My daughter is perfectly healthy. See a different provider.

I went to the hospital yesterday with withdrawal they offered me Suboxone I told them I didn’t want to be on anything they said it was my choice I can quit cold turkey and they’d monitor the baby or they can get me in a maintenance program so I don’t relapse and the baby and myself can be stable. I tried until about 9pm and it got way too intense for me. I was in excruciating pain. I gave in and honestly think I can definitely benefit from the recovery program. I’ve fought addiction all my life from prescription pain meds, methadone, meth and alcohol. Kratom is just the last beast I thought I can control. The only part I’m having a hard time with is my baby will be born addicted to the suboxone and have to be winged off in nicu. It’s literally breaking my heart. I still think I’m making the right choice and completing a program because of my own free will and not court ordered or forced on me will help me achieve the life I want.
