It is really an unfortunate actuality that even mothers-to-be have trouble with substance abuse. Often times, the pregnant woman was already dependent on alcohol or drugs whenever they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their child. Continuing drug use when pregnant isn't just going to result in a risky pregnancy, but sometimes also significantly increases instances of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn going through drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't put an end to their drug abuse throughout their pregnancy. And nobody wants to have their infant taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Facilities for mothers-to-be may offer woman real solutions in order to have a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy infant when it is born. In the rehab for mothers-to-be, women can be safely detoxed without any unwanted effects that could compromise their own health or the well-being of their infant. They can continue in rehabilitation of sufficient length to obtain the support and care that they must to understand their addiction and what caused it, to prevent these scenarios and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother for their baby.
