I suppose it might depend on the type of opiate used and how long it was used for. But that doesn't really matter... the damage has likely been done.

Be up front with your doctor, the doctor isn't there to judge. I'm sure he'll have all the facts you need. I do know that it is stored in your fat cells. Losing a massive amount of weight (which you won't do) might put some in your blood, but not enough to affect yourself or the baby. The THC shouldn't be there at the time of birth. Congrats! have a happy and healthy nine months, and be proud of yourself for taking the initiative to quit smoking. edit: they generally test the mecomium (first poop) for drugs. you would have to continue to use during your pregnancy for it to show. I know, I used to do the tests.

Depends on the opiate. A quick Google says heroin has a half-life of minutes; methadone, over a day.

It really depends on the drug. Marijuana can stay in your system for up to 45 days and others can be gone in as little as 24 hours.
A lot of women use before they find out they are pregnant but, it is best not to use if you are trying to get pregnant or once you find out you are pregnant.

Long enough to do damage to a baby because of the mother's idiocy.

Long enough to land your asss in jail for child endangerment.
