Often times, the pregnant woman had been addicted to drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, for the sake of their baby. Continuing drug abuse while pregnant is not only going to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but could also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn dealing with drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their substance abuse throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their infant taken away from them because they couldn't quit. Facilities for expectant mothers can offer woman genuine solutions so that they can have a healthy pregnancy and consequently a healthy child when it is born.

They are able to continue in rehabilitation long enough to receive the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and just what caused it, to stop these circumstances and circumstances later on so they are a good mother to their baby.
