It is really an unfortunate reality that even expectant mothers battle with drug abuse. Quite often, the pregnant woman is addicted to alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, for the sake of their baby. Continuing drug abuse while pregnant isn't only going to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to alcohol or drugs. No one wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't stop their drug or alcohol use in their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their infant taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Centers for mothers-to-be can offer woman genuine solutions in order to experience a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy infant when it is born. In a center for expectant mothers, women can be safely detoxed without the uncomfortable side effects that may compromise their health or the well-being of their infant. They can stay in treatment of sufficient length for the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and what prompted it, to stop these conditions and circumstances in the future so they can be a good mother to their child.
