Full House's Stephanie Tanner is all growed up – and now, Jodie Sweetin is facing a harsh turn of events. TMZ just broke the story that after an emergency custody hearing called by her estranged husband, Sweetin is no longer allowed to see her 8-month-old daughter without supervision.

Reportedly, Sweetin husband of just nine months, Cody Herpin accused Sweetin of being an unfit mother and told the judge of an alleged incident where Sweetin drove drunk with the baby in the back seat. Sweetin is a recovering meth addict and alcoholic. A doctor testified that Sweetin had recently relapsed, but added that she is attending AA meetings and isn't a threat to the child.

The judge ruled that Sweetin will be allowed to have supervised visits with her daughter. The judge also ordered both Jodie and Cody to submit to drug testing before the next hearing.
