It is an unfortunate actuality that even expectant mothers have trouble with drug use. Often times, the expectant mother is already dependent on drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing substance abuse when pregnant is not only likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their drug abuse throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their infant removed from their care simply because they couldn't quit. Rehabs for expectant mothers can offer woman genuine solutions to enable them to have a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy infant when it's born. Within a rehab for mothers-to-be, women can be safely detoxed without unwanted effects that may compromise their own health or the health of their child. They are able to stay in rehab long enough to receive the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction as well as what caused it, in order to avoid these scenarios and circumstances in the future so they are a good mother to their infant.
