It is really an unfortunate reality that even pregnant women have trouble with substance abuse. In many cases, the pregnant woman was 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, in the interest 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 babies born dependent to alcohol or drugs. No one wants to see their newborn under-going alcohol or drug withdrawal because they didn't stop their substance abuse in their pregnancy. And nobody wants to have their baby taken away from them simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for expectant mothers can provide woman true solutions to be able to have a healthy pregnancy and eventually a healthy baby when it is born. In a rehab for pregnant women, women can be safely detoxed without the unwanted effects that may compromise their own health or the health of their baby. They can stay in rehabilitation long enough to get the support and care that they must to understand their addiction and just what caused it, to avoid these scenarios and circumstances in the long-term so they can be a good mother to their baby.
