It is really an unfortunate fact that even expectant mothers battle with drug abuse. In many cases, the pregnant woman had been hooked on alcohol or drugs whenever they became pregnant and merely couldn't stop using no matter how hard they attempted to do so, in the best interests of their child. Continuing drug abuse in pregnancy is not just going to result in a dangerous pregnancy, but could also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn going through drug or alcohol withdrawal simply because they didn't stop their substance abuse throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their child removed from their care simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers can offer woman genuine solutions so that they can experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy child when it is born. In the rehab for pregnant women, women can be easily detoxed with no unwanted effects which could compromise their health or the well-being of their infant. They can remain in treatment of sufficient length to receive the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and what caused it, in order to avoid these situations and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother for their infant.
