It's an unfortunate reality that even pregnant women battle with drug use. Quite often, the pregnant woman had been hooked on alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and merely couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, in the interest of their child. Continuing drug abuse while pregnant isn't just going to result in a risky pregnancy, but can also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't stop their drug abuse throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their infant taken away from them because they couldn't quit. Programs for mothers-to-be can provide woman real solutions so that they can experience a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy baby when it's born. In a facility for expectant mothers, women can be safely detoxed without negative effects which may compromise their health or the health of their child. They're able to be in rehab of sufficient length to get the support and care that they need to understand their addiction as well as what caused it, in order to avoid these situations and circumstances later on so they can be a good mother for their infant.
