It's an unfortunate reality that even mothers-to-be battle with substance abuse. Sometimes, the expectant mother had been addicted to alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they tried, for the sake of their child. Continuing drug use in pregnancy isn't just likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but can also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn under-going alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't stop their drug or alcohol use during their pregnancy. And nobody wants to have their infant taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for pregnant ladies can offer woman real solutions in order to experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy baby when it's born. In a rehab for pregnant women, women can be easily detoxed without side effects that may compromise their own health or the health of their baby. They're able to remain in treatment long enough for the support and care that they must to understand their addiction and what caused it, in order to avoid these conditions and circumstances in the future so they are a good mother for their child.
