It's an unfortunate reality that even expectant mothers battle with substance abuse. Often times, the pregnant woman is already addicted to drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and merely couldn't stop using no matter how hard they attempted to do so, for the sake of their baby. Continuing drug use during pregnancy isn't just going to result in a dangerous 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 under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't stop their drug or alcohol use during their pregnancy. And nobody wants to have their infant removed from their care because they couldn't quit. Programs for pregnant women will offer woman true solutions to be able to have a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy baby when it's born. Within a center for pregnant women, women can be safely detoxed without any unwanted effects that could compromise their health or the well-being of their child. They're able to continue in rehab of sufficient length to receive the support and care that they must to fully grasp their addiction and what prompted it, in order to avoid these situations and circumstances later on so they can be a good mother for their infant.
