Many: The most severe risks are for your baby. Growth retardation, premature delivery and multiple developmental effects are the concern there. Then, for you, it is elevation of blood pressure, pulmonary infections, asthma, low oxygen levels, smell bad and others. Would you put a cigarette in your baby's mouth after it is born? That is what you do if you smoke while it is attached in your womb! qui.

Smoking causes PPROM: The most devastating effect of prenatal smoking on the pregnancy is preterm premature rupture of membranes that sentences an otherwise healthy fetus to lifelong disability and suffering (especially if it occurs before 32 weeks). Quit as early as possible after pregnancy is confirmed! consider it a sacrifice for your offspring, even if you do not care about your own health.
