Will My Baby Be Effected From Oxycodone During Pregnancy?

I have been clean off opiates for a month now. Im 37 weeks pregnant and i relapsed yesterday and took two 30mg oxycodone. Im worried that my baby will have it in system when born. Reasons why i took the drug is because of disk in my back rubbing against eachother causing bad pains. Will my baby be clean?
