It is really an unfortunate reality that even pregnant women battle with drug use. Quite often, the expectant mother was already dependent on alcohol or drugs when they became pregnant and couldn't stop using no matter how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their baby. Continuing drug use when pregnant is not only going to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but could also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. No one wants to see their newborn going through drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't stop their drug abuse throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their child taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Centers for expectant mothers may offer woman true solutions in order to have a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy baby when it is born. Within a center for expectant mothers, women can be safely detoxed without side effects which may compromise their health or the health of their child. They can remain in treatment of sufficient length to receive the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and just what prompted it, to avoid these circumstances and circumstances in the long-term so they can be a good mother to their child.
