Positive drug test and pregnant
Okay so let me start off by saying, I have never done drugs before! With that being said, I went to my OBGYN a week or two ago and every time I go, they make you pee in a cup. Well they called me today and told me that all of my lab results came back fine, but I tested positive for opiates... I kept telling her that I’ve never done drugs and I have no idea why I would have. I told her I take my prenatal vitamins and drink coffee occasionally but other than that, I don’t do anything bad during pregnancy! My baby is too important! So after I talked to her on the phone, I remembered that I had a bagel that morning that was covered in Poppy Seeds. I called her back and told her and she said that my doctor said that poppy seeds would test positive for Marijuana, not opiates...but I looked online and every place that I read said that poppy seeds could test positive for opiates. So I’m really confused, and worried because I don’t want them to think that I do drugs! I already have a little girl and now one on the way, so I don’t want them to like report it or try to take my child away when I’ve never done drugs! Has anybody else had this experience??
Update: thank you to everyone who has commented! I have no idea why my doctor would have said that Poppy Seeds tested for Marijuana. As soon as she said it, I kinda figured she was wrong! But thank you all for verifying everything and making me feel better! I’m gonna stay away from Poppy Seeds for the rest of my pregnancy just to be on the safe side! I will also retest at my next appointment and make sure that they notice it is clean!
