A record number of drug-addicted babies are being born in Tennessee.
The majority these days aren't addicted to crack, but to drugs like oxycodone, morphine, and methadone.
And withdrawal can be an expensive, excruciating process. The babies may see tremors, cramps, and seizures. They don't eat or they eat too fast. They vomit, and sweat, and won't make eye-contact with caregivers.
More than 800 babies are projected to be born addicted in Tennessee this year alone.
State officials say its an epidemic that's only expected to get worse, but for now they'll continue to work to solve the problem.
