I guess they are more likely to crave nicotine, at a minimum.

Inhaling poison is dangerous, shocker.

A friend managed a local gas station. Sold a lot of gas and especially cigarettes.

9 of 10 cigarette purchases were by women; and the women bought most of that on Fridays.

The wreckage that cigarettes do to the ladies skin - few are convinced.

"No Amount "

Hmmm, so it's more deadly than a weaponized botulism toxin aerosol, which only takes micrograms to kill you.

Smoking is a stupid habit. It harms the mother as well as the child.

Alcohol consumption is another dangerous concern. As is illicit drug usage.

Someone explain this to me: If “My Body. My Choice” is the catchphrase that allows abortions, then how and why does the State prosecute women who use drugs during pregnancy leaving children to be born with serious birth defects?

I was born in 1950. My mom smoked unfiltered Camels all during my gestation and after. Making things more interesting, she was a public health nurse.

I guess ciggies today are more powerful?

They should have told my mother that (and just about everyone else’s I know around my age) 65 years ago. But we didn’t turn out too bad.

My favorite line from Roseanne: “I quit smokin’ and drinkin’ for FOUR WHOLE MONTHS when I was pregnant with you!”

Never smoked. Never had a baby and never used to drink...until 2008. What happened back THEN, I wonder?

While smoking cannot be good for the fetus studies like this that blow it out of proportion are good reason to not take any studies seriously. You back to the 50’s thru the 70’s and you had tons of babies born to heavy smokers who came out a whole lot better than the kids today from mothers who don’t smoke. There are so many other environment contaminants that did not exist back then. Needless to say there are just plain a lot of bad parents these days who don’t teach their kids good things.

"Smoking even one or two cigarettes a day before or during pregnancy can lead to serious health problems for newborns..."
