It's an unfortunate fact that even expectant mothers have trouble with drug abuse. Often times, the expectant mother was already dependent on alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the interest of their child. Continuing drug use when pregnant is not just likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but could also significantly increases instances of miscarriage and babies born dependent to alcohol or drugs. No one wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their substance abuse in their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their baby removed from their care simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for mothers-to-be may offer woman actual solutions so that they can have a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy infant when it is born. In a rehab for mothers-to-be, women can be safely detoxed without any uncomfortable side effects that may compromise their own health or the well-being of their baby. They're able to remain in treatment long enough to get the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction as well as what caused it, to prevent these circumstances and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother to their infant.
