If you used drugs during your pregnancy, the fear of what happens at the hospital is real. You deserve honest answers.
Hospitals routinely conduct drug testing after delivery. It is standard hospital procedure, and it is something the medical team is trained to act on. If a test comes back positive, the social worker on staff is typically required to contact child protective services.
That can feel terrifying. But it does not mean you are out of options.
As a birth mother, you still have rights. You still have a voice. There are real options available to you, whether that means working with a family member, exploring temporary foster care, or creating an adoption plan. What matters most is that this decision belongs to you.
