It is really an unfortunate reality that even expectant mothers have trouble with drug use. In many cases, the expectant mother is already hooked on alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the interest of their child. Continuing substance abuse in pregnancy is not only likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but can also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to alcohol or drugs. Nobody wants to see their newborn going through drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their drug abuse throughout their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their baby taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for pregnant women can offer woman actual solutions to enable them to have a healthy pregnancy and consequently a healthy infant when it is born. Inside a program for pregnant women, women can be easily detoxed without the side effects that may compromise their health or the well-being of their infant. They can be in rehabilitation long enough to get the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction and just what prompted it, to avoid these circumstances and circumstances down the road so they are a good mother to their child.
