It is really an unfortunate truth that even expectant mothers have a problem with drug abuse. Quite often, the expectant mother is already addicted to drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, in the interest of their child. Continuing drug use when pregnant isn't only likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but sometimes also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to alcohol or drugs. Nobody wants to see their newborn dealing with drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their drug or alcohol use throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their baby removed from their care because they couldn't quit.
