most helpful answer hi her quitting and going cold turkey will benefit her and her baby straight away. throwing out her cigarettes and vowing never to smoke again may be difficult for her for a few weeks but each day she will fill better for it. but there's no evidence that the stress of suddenly quitting smoking has any effect on your baby so that would be the way for her to go. this would also benefit the baby if she carries on it could be under weight. do hope this helps. good luck
is continuing to smoke cigarettes throughout pregnancy safer than simply quitting? . my freind's girlfriend told him that her doctor informed her that it was safer for their unborn child to continue smoking through the remaining 8 months of pregnancy rather than having her simply quit now due to the baby going through nicotine withdrawals. . no one was there with her when this happened. it sounds like bs to me but can anyone back this up. . trying to look out for my friend's unborn child so thanks everyone in advance.
