Often times, the pregnant woman had been dependent on alcohol or drugs whenever they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, for the sake of their baby. Continuing drug abuse when pregnant isn't only likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but could also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol.
