It's an unfortunate truth that even expectant mothers battle with drug abuse. Often times, the pregnant woman had been hooked on drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using no matter how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their child. Continuing drug use during pregnancy isn't only going to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but sometimes also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn dealing with alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't stop their substance abuse during their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their infant taken away from them because they couldn't quit. Rehabs for mothers-to-be may offer woman real solutions in order to experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy baby when it is born. In a program for expectant mothers, women can be safely detoxed with no negative effects which could compromise their health or the health of their child. They can remain in rehab of sufficient length to obtain the support and care that they must to understand their addiction as well as what prompted it, to stop these conditions and circumstances later on so they are a good mother for their infant.
