It's an unfortunate truth that even mothers-to-be battle with substance abuse. Sometimes, the expectant mother is 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 interest of their baby. Continuing drug abuse in pregnancy isn't only likely to result in a risky pregnancy, but sometimes also drastically increases rates of miscarriage and babies born dependent to drugs or alcohol. Nobody wants to see their newborn under-going drug or alcohol withdrawal because they didn't stop their drug abuse during their pregnancy. And nobody wants to get their baby taken away from them because they couldn't quit. Facilities for pregnant women may offer woman genuine solutions to enable them to experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy child when it's born. Within a rehab for expectant mothers, women can be easily detoxed with no side effects that may compromise their health or the well-being of their baby. They can stay in rehabilitation of sufficient length to get the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and just what caused it, in order to avoid these conditions and circumstances down the road so they are a good mother for their baby.
