Stacey: Is smoking in pregnancy really that bad?

Stacey – 35 weeks pregnant on:
Is smoking in pregnancy really that bad?

Stacey said: “I mean a lot of people put across “oh smoking’s real bad and this that and the other” but there’s a lot of people out there that do much worse things like taking like heroin and things like that.
That’s got more to do more to the baby than out else, so I don’t think smoking is actually a big like problem."


Midwife Hull said: "Smoking in pregnancy can have devastating affects on baby We know it increases you having a baby early (premature) which can mean your tiny baby is in hospital for longer and can affect how you bond with baby. Also smoking increases the risks of your baby developing chest infections, ear infections and asthma all of which may mean more admissions to hospital and taking medication."
