Abstract
⺠It is unclear why pregnancy is a salient motivator for changing substance use. ⺠Substance cessation during pregnancy may involve both altruism and self interest. ⺠We examined substance cessation in women who made postnatal adoption placements. ⺠Prenatal substance cessation was independently related to self concept as a provider. ⺠Depression, antisocial behaviors, and genetic factors may have inhibited cessation.
