Often times, the pregnant woman was already addicted to alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and merely couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, for the sake of their child. Continuing drug abuse when pregnant is not only going to result in a risky pregnancy, but can also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to alcohol or drugs.

They are able to be in rehabilitation of sufficient length to obtain the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and what caused it, in order to avoid these situations and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother for their child.
