It is really an unfortunate actuality that even expectant mothers have a problem with drug abuse. Sometimes, the expectant mother is already hooked on drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and couldn't stop using no matter how hard they attempted to do so, in the interest of their child. Continuing substance abuse in pregnancy is not just likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but can also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to alcohol or drugs. No one wants to see their newborn experiencing alcohol or drug withdrawal simply because they didn't put an end to their substance abuse in their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their infant removed from their care because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers can offer woman real solutions to enable them to experience a healthy pregnancy and consequently a healthy baby when it is born. Within a program for pregnant women, women can be easily detoxed without any uncomfortable side effects which may compromise their own health or the health of their baby. They're able to be in rehab long enough to receive the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction and what prompted it, to stop these conditions and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother to their child.
