It is really an unfortunate truth that even mothers-to-be have trouble with drug use. Quite often, the expectant mother was already addicted to alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the interest of their baby. Continuing drug use while pregnant is not just going to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but could 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 put an end to their substance abuse throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their infant taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers can offer woman real solutions to be able to experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy child when it is born. In a facility for expectant mothers, women can be easily detoxed with no unwanted effects which could compromise their own health or the health of their infant. They're able to continue in rehab of sufficient length to get the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction and just what caused it, in order to avoid these scenarios and circumstances down the road so they are a good mother to their baby.
