It is an unfortunate fact that even expectant mothers have trouble with drug abuse. Sometimes, the pregnant woman is hooked on alcohol or drugs whenever they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they tried, in the interest of their baby. Continuing substance abuse when pregnant is not only going to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't stop their substance abuse during their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their child taken away from them because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers may offer woman true solutions to enable them to have a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy child when it's born. In a facility for expectant mothers, women can be easily detoxed with no unwanted effects that could compromise their own health or the well-being of their infant. They can stay in rehab long enough to obtain the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction and just what prompted it, to prevent these conditions and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother for their child.
