My friend and I were discussing whether or not smoking while pregnant is harmful for the baby. We ended up looking up some interesting articles about studies about the subject. I personally know women who have smoked throughout pregnancy and had healthy babies. I do know one friend who's son was born premature and is still small for his age, but his mom was also underweight and continued smoking cigarettes throughout her pregnancy. Both of which are known to have negative health risks. I personally consider ways of taking it (edibles vs. blunts) as well as frequency.

I'm not wondering if you personally would or would not smoke while pregnant.

My question is do you think smoking impacts your baby during pregnancy?

Please be unbiased and respectful.
