It is really an unfortunate reality that even expectant mothers have trouble with substance abuse. Quite often, the pregnant woman had been addicted to alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing drug use while pregnant is not just likely to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but sometimes also significantly increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn going through alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't put an end to their drug abuse in their pregnancy. And nobody wants to have their baby removed from their care simply because they couldn't quit. Facilities for pregnant women will offer woman actual solutions to enable them to have a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy baby when it is born. In a facility for mothers-to-be, women can be easily detoxed without negative effects which could compromise their health or the well-being of their baby. They can continue in treatment of sufficient length for the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and what caused it, to prevent these situations and circumstances later on so they are a good mother for their child.
