It's an unfortunate reality that even expectant mothers have a problem with substance abuse. In many cases, the expectant mother was already addicted to alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing drug abuse while pregnant isn't only likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but can also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn dealing with drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their substance abuse in their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their child removed from their care because they couldn't quit. Facilities for pregnant women may offer woman actual solutions to be able to have a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy baby when it is born. In a program for mothers-to-be, women can be easily detoxed without side effects which may compromise their health or the well-being of their baby. They're able to continue in rehabilitation long enough to obtain the support and care that they must to understand their addiction as well as what prompted it, to stop these scenarios and circumstances later on so they can be a good mother for their child.
