It's an unfortunate actuality that even mothers-to-be have trouble with substance abuse. Often times, the expectant mother was already hooked on alcohol or drugs whenever they became pregnant and couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, for the sake of their child. Continuing substance abuse during pregnancy is not only going to result in a risky pregnancy, but could also drastically increases instances of miscarriage and infants born dependent to alcohol or drugs. No one wants to see their newborn under-going alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't put an end to their drug abuse throughout their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their child taken away from them because they couldn't quit. Programs for mothers-to-be can offer woman real solutions so that they can have a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy child when it's born.

They're able to be in rehabilitation of sufficient length to get the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction and what prompted it, to avoid these situations and circumstances later on so they are a good mother for their child.
