It is an unfortunate truth that even pregnant women have trouble with drug abuse. In many cases, the pregnant woman is dependent on alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they tried, for the sake of their baby. Continuing drug abuse when pregnant isn't just likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but tends to also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to alcohol or drugs. Nobody wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their drug or alcohol use throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their child removed from their care simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers will offer woman actual solutions to enable them to have a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy child when it's born. In a facility for expectant mothers, women can be easily detoxed with no negative effects which could compromise their own health or the health of their child. They can be in rehabilitation long enough to get the support and care that they must to fully grasp their addiction as well as what caused it, to stop these situations and circumstances later on so they are a good mother for their child.
