Summary

This study tested a special parenting program (mABC) for pregnant women recovering from opioid addiction. 174 mothers and their babies took part. The program focuses on helping mothers be more sensitive and nurturing, which could improve the baby's emotional and physical development. Researchers measured parenting skills, stress levels, and baby behavior to see if the program helps.

What this could lead to
If successful, this program could help mothers in recovery build stronger bonds with their babies and support healthier child development.
What could go wrong
This is a completed study with 174 participants, so results are available but may not apply to all families. The intervention is behavioral, not medical, so effects may be modest.
