It's an unfortunate truth that even expectant mothers have trouble with drug abuse. Quite often, the expectant mother is already dependent on alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using no matter how hard they attempted to do so, for the sake of their child. Continuing drug abuse while pregnant isn't just likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to alcohol or drugs. Nobody wants to see their newborn under-going alcohol or drug withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their drug or alcohol use in their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their infant taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Rehabs for mothers-to-be can provide woman actual solutions in order to have a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy infant when it's born. In a program for mothers-to-be, women can be safely detoxed without side effects which could compromise their health or the well-being of their child. They can stay in rehab of sufficient length to get the support and care that they must to understand their addiction and just what caused it, to prevent these scenarios and circumstances in the future so they are a good mother for their baby.
