Any level of nicotine is considered unsafe for expectant mothers, says Ashford, so pregnant women should avoid smoking even one or two cigarettes a day. If they do continue to use tobacco, studies show that women who smoke are more likely to have miscarriages, or their babies may be born too early or have a low birth weight.
The health risks continue after birth as well if babies are exposed to the second-hand smoke of their mothers or other family members, or to third-hand smoke if they come into contact with surfaces that are covered with smoke particles.
About one in four pregnant women in Kentucky smoke. (Nationally the rate is about 10 percent.) Ashford says in some Kentucky counties, nearly half of all pregnant women are smokers. Even electronic cigarettes, battery-operated smoking devices that allow users to inhale vapors that contain nicotine, flavorings, and other chemicals, are proving popular among expectant mothers. 041b061a72
