It is an unfortunate truth that even expectant mothers battle with drug abuse. Sometimes, the pregnant woman is already dependent on drugs or alcohol when they became pregnant and simply couldn't stop using regardless of how hard they attempted to do so, for the sake of their child. Continuing drug use during pregnancy is not only likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but can also significantly increases instances of miscarriage and infants born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn dealing with alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't put an end to their drug or alcohol use in their pregnancy. And no one wants to get their child removed from their care because they couldn't quit. Facilities for expectant mothers may offer woman true solutions in order to experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy infant when it is born. Within a facility for mothers-to-be, women can be easily detoxed without the side effects which may compromise their own health or the health of their infant. They can be in treatment long enough to receive the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and what caused it, to prevent these situations and circumstances down the road so they are a good mother to their baby.
