Alcohol, Tobacco and other Drugs

       For all of those mothers who don't smoke but are constantly around or near people who do smoke, watch out for second hand smoke. All of the second hand smoke that goes through your lungs also goes to your baby and it takes less second hand smoke to effect your growing baby than it does you. If you think you're exposed to large amounts of second hand smoke take yourself and your baby out of that situation and go somewhere else. If you leave the area you may be saving your life and you may also be saving your babies life too.

Smoking during pregnancy and using drugs may give
your baby abnormalities like this one.
Not smoking can help you have a healthy and happy baby!
     Now, we all understand that smoking is addictive and a hard habit to drop but, it's not impossible to get rid of, there is hope. All over the nation there are places to help you. N.A. (narcotics anonymous) and local NHS free smoking helplines all over America. New anti-narcotic drugs are even on the market now that help stop your smoking addiction without making you addicted to the drug. They're safe for you and your baby and doctor recommended. Some drugs that fall under these categories are Chantix. So don't stay addicted, you shouldn't have a mental want or need for smoking, free yourself and free your baby, quit smoking and save a life.
