It's an unfortunate reality that even pregnant women have a problem with substance abuse. Sometimes, the pregnant woman is already addicted to drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and merely couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, in the interest of their child. Continuing substance abuse when pregnant isn't just likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but could also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn experiencing drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their drug abuse during their pregnancy. And nobody wants to have their child taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Rehabs for expectant mothers may offer woman actual solutions so that they can experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy infant when it is born. Within a facility for pregnant women, women can be safely detoxed with no unwanted effects which may compromise their own health or the health of their baby. They can remain in rehab of sufficient length for the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and just what caused it, to avoid these circumstances and circumstances in the future so they can be a good mother for their baby.
