It's an unfortunate actuality that even mothers-to-be have a problem with drug use. Often times, the pregnant woman had been dependent on alcohol or drugs whenever they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they tried, for the sake of their baby. Continuing drug abuse during pregnancy is not just going to result in a risky pregnancy, but sometimes also significantly increases instances of miscarriage and infants born dependent to alcohol or drugs. No one wants to see their newborn dealing with drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their drug or alcohol use in their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their child removed from their care simply because they couldn't quit. Rehabs for expectant mothers may offer woman real solutions so that they can have a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy child when it is born. In a program for expectant mothers, women can be safely detoxed with no side effects that may compromise their own health or the health of their infant. They are able to continue in rehabilitation of sufficient length to receive the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and what prompted it, in order to avoid these scenarios and circumstances down the road so they are a good mother for their child.
