When you take a puff then the smoke that you inhale
goes into your baby’s body. It affects his weight resulting into less
resistant body. Smoking affects his height too. Such babies whose
mothers had smoked during their pregnancies are generally short in
height. This possibility is much less in case of the women who smoke a
full pack during pregnancy. At this stage even no physician suggests to
continue this habit. Baby’s body needs more supply of oxygen to survive
in mother’s womb. Supply of nicotine deprives a baby to consume his
share of oxygen. Such children are not able to adjust socially than
children of non smoking mothers.
Studies show that possibility of infant morality is 50
percent higher when the mother smokes than in case of non -smoking mothers.
Children of many smokers die of sudden infant death syndrome, or crib death.
If pregnant women stop smoking by their fourth month of pregnancy then still
they are out of danger zone.
Parenting is a tough job. If you do not sound well in your health then how will
you be able to take care of your child? Most women suffer from lung cancer that
is a deadly disease. A child always seeks for his mother’s shelter. If
you want to be there all time for your child, then you need to stop smoking at once.
Passive smokers are more prone to the diseases than chain smokers are. This
applies on children also. As a matter of fact, they are too sensitive to
problems raised by the passive smoking.
By quitting the smoking you are rendering a new life to your child. You and
your child both will enjoy a healthy lifestyle. Quitting smoking is not an easy
thing to do for the usual smokers. But alternatives will certainly work for you.
There are many support centers that can help you out. Just enroll
yourself in them. You can see your health care provider for solutions
and suggestions. Your one step to quitting the smoking will lead your
unborn to the path of a safe child.
