My sister and her boyfriend both smoked, even during the pregnancy. Thank God my nephew turned out alright though. I smoke, but I step outside to do so.

I have a change smoker friend. When she was pregnant, she also did not quit smoking. She got birth to a healthy boy. After 2 years, the boy was hospitalized and diagnose that has lung asthma. The doctor said maybe he got that at birth and it just occur lately. Maybe he got that from her mother.

My nephew does have asthma, I guess I never put two and two together. It makes a lot of sense now.

They said asthma is inherited from their parents. Doctors says that asthma cannot be cured but can be prevented to become worst. They are giving inhaler and other stuffs...But just want to tell a story about my friend. He is an asmathic guy since child. He was in the hospital every month due to his ashtma. Would you believed when he start drinking dried eaucalyptus leaves as a tea he was cured?

I smoked while pregnant and besides my babies being on the small weight side that was all I could see that effected them. The dr always said the kids would have asthma and bronchitis and things from second hand smoke.He also said the smoke clings to my clothes and hurts the kids also. But when I quit I saw no difference in their health at all.I would say ,yes, that second hand smoke does enter the baby but how much it would take to hurt the baby I do not know. I guess any amount is not good.

I smoked while carrying my babies and they were on the small weight size . I think ,yes, that the second hand smoke does enter the baby .I don't know how much of it will effect the baby though. I would just say if your husband smokes have him go outside or into another room,well ventilated.
