Re: Smoking whilst pregnant. - December 16th 2010, 11:13 PM

I definitely think smoking while pregnant is bad and smokers should seriously try to quit when they find out they are pregnant. However, smoking is an addiction and it can be really hard to quit, so I wouldn't judge women who do smoke while pregnant.


Question, Does anyone have any hard statistics of the risks to a baby of a smoking mother? I can find lots of sites that say what the risks are, but it's hard to tell how common they actually are. I know lots of people who were born to smoking mothers and they turned out just fine.


From your head down to your toes,
You're not much, goodness knows.
But you're so precious to me,
Sweet as can be,
Baby of mine.
