If my husband smokes and i geti pregnant.does it affect the health of the baby?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and no: Since pregnancy exposure is only passive, there is little direct effect on baby. After birth, it doubles the kids risk of respiratory and ear infections.It also increases risk of crib death.
