Will it hurt my baby?

Question

I REALLY want to breastfeed but I’m a smoker. I know you shouldn’t smoke while pregnant but my dr suggested me to slow down not to quit because I was already a high risk pregnancy and quitting would add stress which would be bad for Baby so I have cut down ALOT! Going to try and quit the day he is born while still in the hospital but if I don’t can I still breastfeed? Or will it hurt the Baby?!?!

Answer

Breastfeeding and smoking can higher the babies risk for SIDS

Answer

My friend went through the same. If you keep the cigarettes down to a bare minimum and only smoke when your baby has just been feed, the amount of toxins that go through the milk are barely noticeable. However your baby might already be addicted to nicotine when it is born. The more you can cut down without getting stressed the better.
