It's an unfortunate actuality that even expectant mothers have trouble with substance abuse. In many cases, the pregnant woman was already addicted to drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their child. Continuing substance abuse during pregnancy is not only likely to result in a dangerous 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 going through drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't stop their drug abuse in their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their child removed from their care simply because they couldn't quit. Facilities for expectant mothers can provide woman genuine solutions to be able to experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy infant when it's born. In the program for mothers-to-be, women can be easily detoxed without any negative effects which may compromise their health or the health of their child. They can remain in rehab long enough to get the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and just what caused it, to prevent these situations and circumstances down the road so they can be a good mother for their baby.
