It is an unfortunate actuality that even mothers-to-be have a problem with drug use. Sometimes, the expectant mother is already dependent on drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing drug use when pregnant 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. Nobody wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't stop their drug or alcohol use throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their baby taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for mothers-to-be may offer woman real solutions to enable them to have a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy baby when it's born. In a program for pregnant women, women can be safely detoxed with no side effects that may compromise their own health or the health of their infant. They are able to remain in rehab of sufficient length to get the support and care that they must to fully grasp their addiction and what caused it, to prevent these situations and circumstances later on so they are a good mother for their infant.
