It's an unfortunate reality that even mothers-to-be battle with drug abuse. Sometimes, the expectant mother is already addicted to drugs or alcohol whenever they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they tried, in the best interests of their child. Continuing drug abuse when 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 alcohol or drugs. No one wants to see their newborn dealing with drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't stop their drug or alcohol use throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their infant taken away from them because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers can offer woman true solutions so that they can experience a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy child when it's born. Inside a facility for pregnant women, women can be safely detoxed without the unwanted effects which could compromise their health or the well-being of their baby. They are able to continue in treatment of sufficient length to receive the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction as well as what caused it, to stop these situations and circumstances in the future so they can be a good mother to their infant.
