It is an unfortunate truth that even expectant mothers have trouble with drug abuse. In many cases, the expectant mother was already dependent on drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and merely couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the interest of their baby. Continuing drug abuse during pregnancy is not just going to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but tends to also significantly increases instances of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn going through alcohol or drug withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their substance abuse during their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their baby removed from their care because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers can provide woman real solutions to enable them to experience a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy child when it is born. Within a rehab for expectant mothers, women can be safely detoxed without any unwanted effects that could compromise their health or the health of their infant. They can remain in treatment long enough to get the support and care that they need to understand their addiction as well as what prompted it, to prevent these situations and circumstances later on so they are a good mother for their baby.
