I don't like it when people smoke when they are pregnant. It can give their child many health problems that they would have a less of a risk of getting if the mother doesn't smoke.
My mom smoked when she was pregnant with my sister, and then again with me.
She was 43 when she had me, I was born premature, had RSV when born, and got asthma. I'm not saying that it was all because my mom smoked, but I'm sure it was at least a small part of it.
I don't think a mother should put her child in serious risk of illness or death so she can smoke. She'd be making both her child and herself healthier if she stopped, at least while pregnant.
