smoke have a 20% higher odds of giving birth to a low-birth weight baby than women who are not exposed to secondhand smoke during pregnancy!.

it increases risk of ectopic pregnancy!. In an ectopic pregnancy, the embryo becomes implanted in a fallopian tube or other abnormal site instead of the uterus!. With the rarest of exceptions, these pregnancies do not result in the birth of a baby, and must be removed surgically or with drug treatment to protect a woman's life!.
And placenta previa, a condition in which the placenta is attached too low in the uterus and covers part or all of the cervix; and placental abruption, in which the placenta separates from the uterine wall before delivery!. Both can result in a delivery that jeopardizes the life of mother and baby!.

Smoking during pregnancy also increases the risk of stillbirth, miscarriage, and severe vaginal bleeding!.

The baby can have low birthweight, get a pack of cigarettes and look at the warning on the box!. It specifically says that women should not smoke while pregnant!. I did a report recently in my bio class about smoking, and they stated that cigarette smoke contains OVER 4000 chemicals, ew!. Imagine all those chemicals going through your blood, through the umbilical cord and the baby being forced to endure them!? Plus studies show that smoking causes the body, skin and organs to age faster, you will die like 8 years earlier than you would have if you never smoked!. So if its that harmful to an adult imagine!. I tried smoking a cigarette 1 time while I was pregnant and it made me so nautious I threw up!. Its just a nasty habit!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
