Smoking During Pregnancy
Smoking during pregnancy can pose serious risks to both the mother and the developing baby. Tobacco use is associated with low birth weight, premature birth, and complications during pregnancy. Harmful chemicals in cigarettes can reduce the amount of oxygen available to the fetus. Healthcare professionals strongly encourage pregnant women to stop smoking and seek support if needed. Family members can also play a vital role by creating a smoke-free environment. Discussions about smoking during pregnancy help raise awareness and provide information about resources available to support healthier outcomes for mothers and babies.
