It is really an unfortunate fact that even expectant mothers battle with substance abuse. In many cases, the expectant mother is hooked on alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they tried, for the sake of their child. Continuing substance abuse in pregnancy isn't just likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but can also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol.
