I took 150 mg through mypregnancy and now have a healthy 3year old, I know you can miscarrie from detoxing but you will probably be ok either way since it's such a small dose. Id quit if I could, or just stay at the same dose but dont go up because it will make it harder for the baby to detox when you have it.

No, Pregnancy can still occur if methadone is being used.
Go to www.safefetus.com. It's a good resource to check any medication you may be taking or considering taking.
Yes, you can. If you do get pregnant while on methadone, do , PLEASE , PLEASE , not detox. At best it will be a shaky experience for you. At worst, you can end up having a miscarriage.
Yes you can but the methadone will block the Dilaudid.
I have kids and my youngest is 3. I still seem to have some milk in my breasts. It was that way before I went on methadone and I only breast fed my child for 2 weeks. I started methadone 2 years ago. I think it's normal.
This isn't an easy question to answer. I do know that there are pregnant women who attend the local methadone clinic, however, it can and does cause addiction in the newborn. It all depends if the benefits outweigh the risks. It is important to discuss this with a doctor. I agree that there are pregnant women who attend a methadone clinic and are able to have a healthy baby. I myself know several of them. However, their baby stays in the hospital while they wean it off of the methadone (again, this applies to the women I know that were pregnant on the clinic... not all women who have a baby while on methadone will have to leave their baby at the hospital for weeks at a time for the baby to be withdrawn safely under medical supervision). So, therefore, I would advise anyone who is pregnant to speak to their personal doctor about the risks and benefits of taking methadone while pregnant. I do, however, think that it is better for a pregnant woman to be on methadone instead of a cocktail of drugs that could really endanger (or worse) the unborn child.
No you can not.
Taking less methadone would help. Talk to the doctor who prescribed you the methadone. He/she will be able to prescribe an anti-emetic such as Phenergan or change the methadone to another medication (if you are using it for pain).
can you test postive for methadone while taking methocarbamol
By taking it without being evaluated and prescribed by a doctor. Taking Methadone without a doctors prescription is considered abuse.
No. You can only miscarry in the third trimester. Taking birth control pills at this stage is unlikely to have any effect on you.
