It's an unfortunate fact that even mothers-to-be have trouble with drug abuse. Quite often, the expectant mother is already hooked on drugs or alcohol whenever they became pregnant and couldn't stop using no matter how hard they attempted to do so, in the interest of their child. Continuing substance abuse in pregnancy is not just likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn under-going alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't put an end to their drug abuse in their pregnancy. And nobody wants to have their child taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Centers for expectant mothers can provide woman actual solutions to enable them to have a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy baby when it is born. In a rehab for mothers-to-be, women can be safely detoxed without the side effects which could compromise their own health or the health of their infant. They are able to stay in rehabilitation of sufficient length to receive the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction as well as what caused it, to stop these conditions and circumstances in the long-term so they can be a good mother to their child.
