It's an unfortunate truth that even mothers-to-be battle with drug abuse. Often times, the pregnant woman was already addicted to alcohol or drugs whenever they became pregnant and merely couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they tried, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing drug abuse while pregnant isn't only going to result in a risky pregnancy, but sometimes also significantly increases instances of miscarriage and babies 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 drug or alcohol use in their pregnancy. And nobody wants to have their child taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Facilities for pregnant women may offer woman genuine solutions to enable them to have a healthy pregnancy and consequently a healthy child when it's born. In a program for expectant mothers, women can be safely detoxed without any negative effects which may compromise their own health or the health of their baby. They can stay in treatment long enough to obtain the support and care that they need to understand their addiction as well as what caused it, to stop these conditions and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother for their child.
