Study Overview
Brief Summary
This research study aims to learn more about opioid use disorder (OUD) during pregnancy and how outcomes for pregnant women and their newborns can be improved. During pregnancy, people with OUD are prescribed medication-assisted therapy (MAT). The investigators are interested to know how the medication is broken down by the body during pregnancy and how effective it is. The investigators also want to learn if this medication and OUD have any effect on the different parts of the brain when compared to mothers without OUD.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Identify alterations in Default mode network connectivity in women with prenatal opioid use disorder compares to control pregnant women without OUD on maternal brain MRI.
Time Frame: During MRI visit between 24-32 weeks gestational age
Secondary Outcomes
- Correlate alteration in brain rs-fMRI default mode network connectivity with steady state plasma buprenorphine exposure in pregnant women with OUD(During MRI visit between 24-32 weeks gestational age)
