I'm 22 and pregnant with my first baby. I have a 22month old step son, and the baby I'm pregnant with is a boy. Just found out yesterday. I'm 18 weeks and i have a bulging herniated disc. My O.B. doesn't believe in narcotics for pregnant or non pregnant patients. I have been taking extra strength vicodin since September of last year. My back specialist wouldn't prescribe me my medication without a written letter from my O.B. and she wouldn't write one. She sent me to see a narcotics specialist for pregnant women. He said it will not harm my baby in any way and I can take it throughout my entire pregnancy. He told me the only thing that could happen is my baby could be born addicted. I would like to stop taking it around 34 weeks and be induced at 38 weeks. The pressure on my disc will cause my leg to give out and I won't be able to walk. I'm almost 5 months pregnant and have never felt pain like this before so I don't even wanna think about what I will feel like at 9 months. Opinions?
