It is an unfortunate fact that even pregnant women have a problem with drug use. In many cases, the pregnant woman is already hooked on alcohol or drugs 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 when pregnant is not only going to result in a risky pregnancy, but could also drastically increases instances of miscarriage and babies 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 drug abuse throughout their pregnancy. And no one wants to have their child removed from their care simply because they couldn't quit. Programs for mothers-to-be may offer woman genuine solutions in order to experience a healthy pregnancy and ultimately a healthy infant when it is born. In a program for expectant mothers, women can be safely detoxed with no unwanted effects that could compromise their health or the health of their infant. They are able to remain in rehabilitation of sufficient length to receive the support and care that they need to understand their addiction and what prompted it, to stop these situations and circumstances in the long-term so they are a good mother to their child.
