It is really an unfortunate truth that even expectant mothers have trouble with substance abuse. In many cases, the expectant mother was already hooked on alcohol or drugs whenever they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using no matter how hard they attempted to do so, for the sake of their baby. Continuing drug use in pregnancy isn't only likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but sometimes also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn experiencing alcohol or drug withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their drug or alcohol use throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their infant removed from their care because they couldn't quit. Programs for pregnant women will offer woman true solutions so that they can have a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy child when it is born. In a rehab for mothers-to-be, women can be safely detoxed with no uncomfortable side effects that could compromise their health or the health of their child. They are able to be in rehab long enough to obtain the support and care that they need to understand their addiction as well as what caused it, in order to avoid these circumstances and circumstances in the long-term so they can be a good mother for their child.
