It is really an unfortunate actuality that even mothers-to-be have trouble with substance abuse. In many cases, the pregnant woman was already dependent on alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing substance abuse in pregnancy is not just going to result in a dangerous 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 experiencing alcohol or drug withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their substance abuse in their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their baby taken away from them because they couldn't quit. Programs for pregnant women can provide woman genuine solutions so that they can experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy infant when it is born. Within a facility for expectant mothers, women can be easily detoxed without unwanted effects which may compromise their own health or the health of their child. They're able to be in treatment long enough to obtain the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction and what caused it, in order to avoid these situations and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother for their infant.
