It is really an unfortunate truth that even pregnant women have a problem with drug abuse. In many cases, the expectant mother had been addicted to drugs or alcohol whenever they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using no matter how hard they attempted to do so, in the interest of their child. Continuing drug abuse while pregnant isn't just going to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but tends to also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to alcohol or drugs. No one wants to see their newborn going through alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't stop their substance abuse during their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their infant removed from their care simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for mothers-to-be may offer woman real solutions so that they can experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy infant when it is born. In the program for expectant mothers, women can be easily detoxed with no negative effects which may compromise their own health or the well-being of their child. They are able to remain in treatment of sufficient length to get the support and care that they must to understand their addiction as well as what caused it, to avoid these conditions and circumstances later on so they are a good mother to their infant.
