It is really an unfortunate fact that even expectant mothers have a problem with substance abuse. In many cases, the pregnant woman was already hooked on alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their child. Continuing substance abuse when pregnant isn't only likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but could also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their drug or alcohol use throughout their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their infant taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for pregnant women will offer woman real solutions to enable them to experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy child when it is born. Within a program for mothers-to-be, women can be easily detoxed without the unwanted effects which could compromise their own health or the well-being of their infant. They're able to continue in rehabilitation long enough to receive the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction and just what prompted it, to stop these situations and circumstances later on so they can be a good mother for their child.
