It's an unfortunate fact that even expectant mothers have a problem with substance abuse. Quite often, the expectant mother is dependent on drugs or alcohol whenever they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, for the sake of their child. Continuing drug abuse when pregnant is not just going to result in a risky pregnancy, but sometimes also drastically increases instances of miscarriage and infants born dependent to alcohol or drugs. Nobody wants to see their newborn experiencing alcohol or drug withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their drug abuse in their pregnancy. And nobody wants to have their child removed from their care because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers will offer woman real solutions in order to have a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy baby when it is born. Within a rehab for expectant mothers, women can be safely detoxed without the negative effects that may compromise their health or the well-being of their baby. They are able to continue in rehab long enough to get the support and care that they need to understand their addiction as well as what caused it, in order to avoid these scenarios and circumstances down the road so they are a good mother for their baby.
