It is an unfortunate truth that even expectant mothers battle with drug use. Often times, the pregnant woman had been addicted to alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, in the interest of their baby. Continuing drug abuse while pregnant is not only likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also significantly increases instances of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn dealing with drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't put an end to their drug abuse during their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their child taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for mothers-to-be can offer woman true solutions in order to experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy baby when it's born. In a program 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 are able to stay in treatment of sufficient length for the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction and what caused it, to stop these scenarios and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother to their baby.
