I don't know if this is current practice/policy/law, but I've heard that in Pittsburgh hospitals would automically drug-test any person giving birth who hadn't had prenatal care, and if she tested positive her child would be taken away. I heard this from a woman who used to work for Child and Youth Services and from a woman who had this happen to her- her now-5 year old was taken away from her because she tested positive for pot and she's still fighting to get her back. :( :( :( Just awful.
