Are Drug Tests Performed Routinely on Pregnant Woman?
Question by amykissinger: Are drug tests performed routinely on pregnant woman?
And if not, why? Wouldn’t this prevent woman from abusing drugs while pregnant? Or maybe it would prevent them from getting the prenatal care they need. Wouldn’t this cut down on drug addicted babies?
Anyone know?

Answer by Indiana Raven
Its not done here in indiana routinely. They will test a baby if drugs are suspected to be in the babies system. I think that women would avoid prenatal care if that were the case and it may increase abandoned babies.
If they were to test for drugs I think that a treatment program should be offered to the mother and not condeming her.

Fort Wayne, IN Non-Profit Poisoning Citizens For Profit – The citizens of Allen County, Indiana are forced to put the drug “Antabuse” in their system following a second DUI arrest without even being convicted of a crime. After conviction of the DUI a person could serve anywhere from 3 to 6 years on the AADP (Alcohol Abuse Deterrent Program) being forced fed a drug which attacks the liver much like alcohol does. Their forced sobriety is risking the health of every individual on the program. The courts continue to sentence people to AADP and AADP continues to poison and ignore its clients health problems. The only reason this facility is allowed to remain in business is because of the Indiana Code (IC 9-30-9-2) that was slipped through with minimal press in 1991 and driven by Judge Ryan of Allen County. We need to abolish or revise this Indiana Code to keep facilities like AADP from hurting people and their families whether it be medically or financially. Please sign this petition to abolish or revise Indiana Code (IC 9-30-9-2) and stop the shameless poisoining of thousands of Indiana citizens for profit. www.fightaadp.bravehost.com
