A Healty Baby! Can you find a better reason to quit?

When a woman who smokes starts to think about having children, she has to stop thinking smoking. Women who smoke during pregnancy and taking a huge risk to the health of her unborn child. When smoked during pregnancy, so does your baby. If your health is not enough to quit, then the health of your baby should be. If she is willing to take that risk to the health of your baby in power, perhaps it is not clever.

Why am I so hard on the issue? Smoking during pregnancy affects the health of your baby before, during and after your baby is born. There is greater likely to miss the baby during pregnancy. The baby could be born too soon, before the lungs are ready, so he or she has difficulty breathing. The baby will be smaller and more likely to need special care and stay longer in hospital. Some may die at birth or within the first year.

Cigarette smoke contains over 4,000 chemicals, and the worst of these chemicals are nicotine and carbon monoxide carbon. When a woman smokes during pregnancy, toxins get into your bloodstream. This is the only source of your baby of oxygen and nutrients. The shortage of oxygen can have devastating effects on your baby's growth and development. Smoking during pregnancy doubles the odds that a baby born too early or weighing less than 5 1 / 2 pounds at birth. Smoking is also more than double the risk of miscarriage and stillbirth.

Undersize babies tend to have underdeveloped bodies. Their lungs may not be willing to work on their own, which means they can spend their first days or weeks on a respirator. After they're breathing your account (or even if they did from the beginning), these babies can have breathing problems continued – because of delayed lung development and other effects effects of nicotine. Infants whose mothers smoked during pregnancy are especially vulnerable to asthma, and have double or even triple the risk of syndrome sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Not to mention the stunting of growth of a baby in the womb can have negative consequences for life.

Smoking during pregnancy can have permanent effects on the brain of your baby. Children of pregnant smokers especially likely to have a learning disability, problems behavior, and a relatively low IQ. Recent animal studies suggest that nicotine in utero may program the brain of a baby by an addiction the future.

Faced with the felling of quitting? The more cigarettes you smoke per day, most likely to develop these health problems. No Level "safe" smoking during pregnancy. The only way to truly protect your baby is quit. Logging is better than doing nothing, but does not eliminate problems only decreases slightly. The body of a smoker is especially sensitive to the first dose of nicotine each day, and even a few significantly tighten blood vessels. A few cigarettes a day are safer than an overall package, but the difference is not as great as one might think.

By quitting? NOW! If you are pregnant, do not wait longer. The best time to quit is when a woman plans to become pregnant before you got pregnant or shortly after she discovers she is already pregnant. If it closes before 16 weeks, your baby probably weighs the same as the baby of a woman who has never smoked. If closed within the first three or four months of pregnancy can reduce the chance of a baby being born very small and with a lot of health problems. Even if a woman quits at the end of her pregnancy, can help your baby get more oxygen and have a better chance. It is never too late to quit smoking, but the sooner the better for mother and baby!

How to quit smoking? Although you are aware of the dangers of smoking, not always easy to quit. The pull of nicotine can overwhelm their good intentions.

1 You can request help from your doctor for ways to stop smoking.

2 Make a list of your reasons for wanting to quit smoking, for herself and her baby.

3 Speak with your family and friends. Support can make all the difference.

4 Ask the nonsmokers smoke near you.

5 Do not go to places where many people are smoking such as bars or clubs, and smoking sections of restaurants.

6 makes a Quit force, the sooner the better. If a woman is unwilling to set a date, can begin to reduce smoking.

7 It can try the four D's: Delay, breathe deeply, drink water, and do something else.

8 Keep mints or gum (preferably sugarless) on hand for those times when get the urge to smoke.

9 Drink less caffeinated beverages, caffeine can stimulate your desire to smoke. Also avoid alcohol, which can also increase the urge to smoke and can be harmful to your baby.

10 Stay active to keep your mind off smoking and help relieve the tension, a walk, exercising, reading a book, or try a new hobby.

11 Change your habits related to smoking. If smoking while driving or when you feel stressed out, try other activities to replace smoking.

12 I think the best way for a pregnant woman quit smoking is to think of their healthy baby.

How can secondhand smoke affect pregnancy? If you are regularly exposed to secondhand smoke, you increase your risk and your baby from developing lung cancer, diseases heart, emphysema, allergies, asthma and other health problems.

Babies exposed to secondhand smoke can also develop reduced lung capacity and are at higher risk of sudden infant death syndrome in infants (SIDS).

Smoking after the baby is born. It makes no sense at all for her to start smoking again! Even after the baby is born, your smoking may affect the baby.

Babies have very small lungs and airways get even smaller when they breathe the smoky air. Smoking may make it difficult for the baby to breathe. It can cause lung problems as bronchitis and pneumonia that could put the baby in the hospital.
