Answer #1

Here is an article in a medical journal I found. Hope it helps.

If your health isn’t enough to make you quit smoking, then the health of your baby should be. Smoking during pregnancy affects you and your baby’s health before, during, and after your baby is born. The nicotine (the addictive substance in cigarettes), carbon monoxide, and numerous other poisons you inhale from a cigarette are carried through your bloodstream and go directly to your baby. Smoking while pregnant will:

Lower the amount of oxygen available to you and your growing baby. Increase your baby’s heart rate. Increase the chances of miscarriage and stillbirth. Increase the risk that your baby is born prematurely and/or born with low birth weight. Increase your baby’s risk of developing respiratory (lung) problems. The more cigarettes you smoke per day, the greater your baby’s chances of developing these and other health problems. There is no “safe” level of smoking while pregnant

Answer #2

she might get asthma or weak lungs… Because what you inhale is absorbed by the baby as well, so better stop smoking, even for just 9months of pregnancy…

Take care of the baby, ayt?

Answer #3
