Last week I saw some ladies promoting smoking while pregnant. It hurt my heart.

While I understand, being a former smoker when I found out I was pregnant, how hard it is to quit, I do not for any reason see why you CAN'T at some point?? Especially once you see and hear your baby's life inside you..

I understand cutting back is less stressful on the child than cold turkey. I get it. Then cut back and then stop. Please just stop.

Here is an article about the effects it has on your baby's life. If you want to be voluntarily ignorant and turn a blind eye, that's on you. But making up bullshit like "all in moderation, it doesn't matter" is sick justification for your habit.

END RANT. :)
