It's an unfortunate fact that even mothers-to-be have trouble with drug abuse. Quite often, the expectant mother was already dependent on alcohol or drugs whenever they became pregnant and couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the interest of their child. Continuing drug use when pregnant is not just likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but could also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their drug abuse throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their infant taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Centers for expectant mothers may offer woman genuine solutions to enable them to have a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy baby when it's born. In a center for expectant mothers, women can be safely detoxed without any side effects that could compromise their own health or the well-being of their baby. They're able to remain in treatment of sufficient length for the support and care that they must to understand their addiction as well as what prompted it, to avoid these situations and circumstances in the long-term so they can be a good mother to their infant.
