It's an unfortunate fact that even expectant mothers have trouble with drug use. In many cases, the pregnant woman was already dependent on drugs or alcohol whenever they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing substance abuse when pregnant is not only going to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn experiencing alcohol or drug withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their substance abuse during their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their child taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for pregnant women will offer woman real solutions to enable them to experience a healthy pregnancy and consequently a healthy infant when it's born. Within a program for expectant mothers, women can be safely detoxed without the uncomfortable side effects that could compromise their own health or the well-being of their baby. They're able to be in rehab long enough to obtain the support and care that they need to understand their addiction as well as what prompted it, to stop these scenarios and circumstances in the future so they are a good mother to their infant.
