It's an unfortunate fact that even mothers-to-be battle with substance abuse. Often times, the pregnant woman had been addicted to alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing substance abuse while pregnant isn't only going to result in a risky pregnancy, but sometimes also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn dealing with alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't put an end to their substance abuse throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their baby taken away from them because they couldn't quit. Facilities for pregnant women may offer woman actual solutions so that they can have a healthy pregnancy and consequently a healthy infant when it is born. Within a rehab for mothers-to-be, women can be easily detoxed without the side effects that could compromise their own health or the well-being of their baby. They're able to remain in treatment long enough to receive the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and what caused it, to prevent these scenarios and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother to their child.
