It's an unfortunate truth that even expectant mothers have a problem with substance abuse. Quite often, the expectant mother had been hooked on drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and couldn't stop using no matter how hard they attempted to do so, for the sake of their child. Continuing substance abuse while pregnant isn't only going to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but sometimes also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to alcohol or drugs. No one wants to see their newborn experiencing alcohol or drug withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their substance abuse throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their infant removed from their care because they couldn't quit. Rehabs for expectant mothers may offer woman actual solutions to enable them to experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy child when it's born. In the program for expectant mothers, women can be easily detoxed without any side effects which could compromise their own health or the well-being of their infant. They can continue in treatment long enough for the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction as well as what prompted it, in order to avoid these scenarios and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother for their child.
