It is really an unfortunate fact that even mothers-to-be have trouble with drug abuse. Quite often, the expectant mother was already dependent on alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and merely couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they tried, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing substance abuse while pregnant isn't only likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but could also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to alcohol or drugs. Nobody wants to see their newborn dealing with alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't put an end to their drug or alcohol use in their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their child taken away from them because they couldn't quit. Facilities for expectant mothers may offer woman real solutions in order to have a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy baby when it's born. Within a facility for mothers-to-be, women can be easily detoxed without any unwanted effects that could compromise their own health or the health of their infant. They are able to remain in rehab long enough to get the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction as well as what prompted it, to prevent these scenarios and circumstances in the future so they are a good mother to their child.
