It is an unfortunate fact that even pregnant women have trouble with substance abuse. Often times, the expectant mother is already dependent on drugs or alcohol whenever they became pregnant and couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their child. Continuing substance abuse in pregnancy is not only likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to alcohol or drugs. Nobody wants to see their newborn experiencing alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't put an end to their substance abuse during their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their child removed from their care because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers can offer woman genuine solutions to enable them to have a healthy pregnancy and consequently a healthy baby when it's born. In a facility for mothers-to-be, women can be safely detoxed without any unwanted effects that may compromise their health or the well-being of their infant. They can remain in rehabilitation long enough to obtain the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and just what caused it, to stop these situations and circumstances in the long-term so they can be a good mother to their child.
