It is an unfortunate reality that even expectant mothers have trouble with substance abuse. Often times, the expectant mother had been addicted to alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and merely couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, for the sake of their child. Continuing drug use in pregnancy isn't just going to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their drug abuse throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their baby taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Rehabs for expectant mothers may offer woman true solutions in order to experience a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy child when it's born. In a facility for pregnant women, women can be easily detoxed with no uncomfortable side effects that may compromise their health or the health of their infant. They are able to be in rehab of sufficient length to obtain the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and just what caused it, in order to avoid these circumstances and circumstances down the road so they are a good mother to their child.
