[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I took 5mg after twlling the nurse 3 times no, but felt pressured and she made me feel more afraid because it was my first delivery. My baby was in the NICU for 4 days due to respiratory issues and oxygen levels dropping. She couldn't breath on her own for 4 days. If you do research you will find this: "A syndrome of hypothermia, hypotonia, respiratory depression and difficulty feeding may occur in in infants of mothers administered this drug in the late phase of pregnancy or during childbirth." I didn't knownthisnuntil today, 5 months after delivery and my baby has had health issurs since birth. She is healthy now, but we have had lots of tests done and ahe now has a low resting heart rate. I would never take ambien again during pregnancy! Just my opinion based on my experience. My daughter was born and went straight to the NICU. I got to hold her fornless than 10 seconds and didn't get to see her until 8 hours later.[/quote]

I’m sorry for your experience and am happy your daughter is doing better but “issues from birth” at 5 mo old was not caused by a one-time dose of 5mg of ambien.[/quote]
