Pa. mom whose baby was taken away for days over poppy seed drug test settles lawsuit | Fox News: "Lawrence County's child welfare agency and Jameson Hospital have paid $143,500 to settle"
"Mort says a poppy seed bagel spurred a positive test for opiates in 2010. Her baby was returned five days later, after officials determined there was no evidence of drugs. Hospital policy called for giving drug tests to all obstetrics patients.
ACLU officials said Tuesday the hospital and county have implemented policy changes so newborns aren't taken from parents based only on maternal drug tests, which can be inaccurate."
