It's an unfortunate truth that even expectant mothers have trouble with substance abuse. In many cases, the pregnant woman was already dependent on drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing drug use when pregnant isn't just going to result in a risky pregnancy, but tends to also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to alcohol or drugs. No one wants to see their newborn dealing with drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their drug abuse throughout their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their child removed from their care simply because they couldn't quit. Rehabs for expectant mothers can offer woman actual solutions in order to experience a healthy pregnancy and consequently a healthy baby when it is born. Within a rehab for pregnant women, women can be safely detoxed without unwanted effects which may compromise their health or the health of their child. They are able to stay in rehabilitation long enough to receive the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction and just what prompted it, to prevent these scenarios and circumstances down the road so they can be a good mother to their baby.
