It is an unfortunate truth that even pregnant women have a problem with substance abuse. Sometimes, the pregnant woman is addicted to drugs or alcohol whenever they became pregnant and couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, in the best interests of their child. Continuing drug abuse when pregnant is not only likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to alcohol or drugs. Nobody wants to see their newborn going through alcohol or drug withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their substance abuse during their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their child taken away from them because they couldn't quit. Programs for pregnant women may offer woman real solutions to enable them to have a healthy pregnancy and consequently a healthy baby when it's born. Within a program for mothers-to-be, women can be safely detoxed without negative effects that could compromise their own health or the well-being of their baby. They can remain in treatment long enough to obtain the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and what caused it, in order to avoid these scenarios and circumstances later on so they are a good mother for their infant.
