Pregnant Women Should Refrain from Smoking

Motherhood is not an easy thing, and this is even more difficult for women who smoke as was revealed in a recent survey. Women smokers are increasing in numbers on a regular basis and although it doesn’t make it any difficult for them to conceive a child, it is during the nine months during which the child is in her womb that gets most difficult. This is because if a woman smokes when she is pregnant, there are high chances that the child will be born unhealthy, maybe an asthmatic or even be handicapped as well. As a result, it is a must that women refrain from smoking even one cigarette during their pregnancies.
