It's an unfortunate truth that even mothers-to-be have trouble with drug abuse. Sometimes, the expectant mother had been dependent on drugs or alcohol whenever they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using no matter how hard they attempted to do so, for the sake of their baby. Continuing drug use while pregnant is not just going to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also drastically increases instances of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn going through drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their substance abuse in their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their baby taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers can offer woman genuine solutions to be able to experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy baby when it is born.
