 [ Symptoms ] is it safe to use an electronic cigarette when you are pregnant  i am 18 weeks pregnant i have given up smoking but have been using an electronic cigarette as an alternative for about 2 weeks however i was not aware that the solution you put in the e cigarette does contain nicotine my question is is the amount of nicotine in the solution enough to cause harm to the baby im not sure how much nicotine the solution actually contains also if i happen to find a solution that does not contain nicotine does that make it harmless for the baby [ Disease ] you are correct no one really knows of e cigarettes are safe when you are pregnant for some strange reason pregnant women have not volunteered to find out if it will hurt the baby or not my advice no e cigarettes the baby does not need the nicotine and you do not need it either you need to just stop smoking period
