Answer #1

it is unhealthy.Its the same as alcohol and any other toxic substance it can affect the baby’s lungs.Savannah would be nice name or Melony.

Answer #2

ok thx for the input but how do i tell my mom that she could harm my lil sis

Answer #3

Well my mom smoked during all her pregnancies and worked intensive labor and none of her children, my sisters and i, came out with any sort of birth defects

Answer #4

thats amazing

Answer #5

Yes, somking, drinking, or any unhealthy food can affect the baby even common pills, everything that your mother consumes indirectly goes to the baby as she lactates, she should talk to her doctor he can tell her the best way to raise her baby, I like Caroline, Katherine, Sophia, Amber, Stacy, Roxanne, Juliana, Alexandra are some of my favs. Luck (:

Answer #6

thx and good name choices

Answer #7

just say “mom, i think its best to wait after the baby is born for you to smoke “ or “mom, stop smoking when you have my sister in you.”

Answer #8

Your mother is well aware it is unhealthy, otherwise why did she quit in the first place? A bunch of people online backing you up to something she already knows isn’t going to get you very far. Quite frankly trying to get someone to do something they don’t want to do is beyond pointless. But if you want to try, get some adults involved, your dad would be helpful, but even an aunt or grandparent.

Answer #9

unhealthy means not in a complete state of mental,physical and social soundness:)

Answer #10

Please make sure your mom understands that if she starts to smoke again, the danger to your new sister (congratulations!) is not just while she’s in the womb or from breast milk. Possibly even a greater danger is the ongoing damage from your mom’s secondary smoke that your sister would be constantly inhaling, even after she’s weaned. Maybe a reminder about that will help wake your mom up, with G!d’s help.

Answer #11

R u joking? Yes difinently. :D

Answer #12

Eh, the baby will be here in a week.

Answer #13

just tell her there is a lil baby in there and if she starts smokin she could hurt it and lose her baby. i like for girls names: hannah, mckayla, madeline, makenzie, deserea, nevaeh(which is heaven backwards)

Answer #14

k thx for the advice

Answer #15

at one week to go, any smoking she did previously will have alreadu had the potential to cause birth deftects and problems. if unnhleahty forANYONE to smoke (and drink/do drug) when pregnant, its likley your mum already knows that. but at one week to go, the damage is alreday dont if shes dont it previosuly while pregnant, i beleive its most harmfull at the earlyy stages. but thats not an excuss to risk your babys health for a cigarette a week before its born

Answer #16

ya it is.

Answer #17

she stopped smokking before she became pregnant

Answer #18

Its not healthy at all, even though she is close to her due date, it doesnt change the fact that there is chance of complications. Keep talking to her and hope that it helps. Let her know you are really concerned, and you don’t want anything to happen to your baby sister, that you want her to be as heathly has possible. (:
