It's an unfortunate fact that even mothers-to-be battle with drug use. In many cases, the expectant mother is already addicted to drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they tried, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing drug abuse in pregnancy is not only going to result in a risky pregnancy, but can also significantly increases instances of miscarriage and babies born dependent to alcohol or drugs. No one wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their drug or alcohol use in their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their child removed from their care because they couldn't quit. Programs for mothers-to-be may offer woman actual solutions so that they can experience a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy baby when it is born. Within a rehab for mothers-to-be, women can be safely detoxed with no side effects that could compromise their own health or the health of their child. They're able to be in rehab of sufficient length for the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and just what prompted it, in order to avoid these situations and circumstances later on so they can be a good mother for their infant.
