It is really an unfortunate fact that even expectant mothers have trouble with substance abuse. Sometimes, the expectant mother had been dependent on alcohol or drugs whenever they became pregnant and just couldn't stop using no matter how hard they tried, in the interest of their child. Continuing drug abuse while pregnant is not only likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but tends to also significantly increases instances of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn under-going alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't stop their drug abuse throughout their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their child taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Rehabs for mothers-to-be may offer woman actual solutions to be able to have a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy child when it's born. Within a rehab for expectant mothers, women can be easily detoxed without the negative effects which may compromise their health or the health of their child. They can be in treatment of sufficient length to get the support and care that they need to understand their addiction as well as what caused it, to avoid these circumstances and circumstances later on so they are a good mother to their child.
