It is an unfortunate truth that even expectant mothers have trouble with substance abuse. Sometimes, the expectant mother was already dependent on drugs or alcohol whenever they became pregnant and merely couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, in the interest of their child. Continuing drug abuse when pregnant isn't only going to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but tends to also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn dealing with drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't stop their substance abuse in their pregnancy. And nobody wants to have their infant removed from their care simply because they couldn't quit. Facilities for mothers-to-be may offer woman true solutions in order to have a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy child when it's born. Within a rehab for pregnant women, women can be easily detoxed without uncomfortable side effects which could compromise their health or the well-being of their infant. They're able to continue in rehabilitation long enough to obtain the support and care that they need to understand their addiction as well as what prompted it, to prevent these situations and circumstances in the long-term so they can be a good mother for their infant.
