It's an unfortunate fact that even expectant mothers have trouble with substance abuse. Sometimes, the expectant mother was already addicted to drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and merely couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, for the sake of their baby. Continuing substance abuse when pregnant is not only going to result in a risky pregnancy, but sometimes also significantly increases instances of miscarriage and babies born dependent to alcohol or drugs. Nobody wants to see their newborn going through alcohol or drug withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their substance abuse in their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their child taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers will offer woman actual solutions in order to experience a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy child when it's born. Within a facility for mothers-to-be, women can be easily detoxed with no uncomfortable side effects which may compromise their own health or the well-being of their infant. They're able to stay in rehab long enough to obtain the support and care that they need to fully grasp their addiction as well as what caused it, in order to avoid these conditions and circumstances down the road so they can be a good mother to their infant.
