Smoking exposes both mother and child to harmful CHEMICALS and this has an extremely negative effect during and after childbirth. These toxic chemicals decrease your blood capacity to carry oxygen and they shrinks blood vessels, disrupts production of Vitamin A and D.
These are just some of the immediate and direct effects of smoking. Future mothers who smoke are TWICE as likely to have premature rupture of membranes, placenta abruption and placenta previa. Smoking Cigarettes Is a Direct Cause Of Premature Childbirth Smoking is a direct cause of premature childbirth and puts your and your child's life at risk. Premature rupture of membranes happens when amniotic sac ruptures prematurely and induces labor before baby is fully formed. That means that if you are pregnant, you put your baby’s life at risk. Premature placenta abruption also causes harm to both mom and unborn child. If placenta prematurely separates from the attachment site that puts unborn child under stress and he or she can even die. It also can create haemorrhage which is deadly. Same can be said for placenta previa. This is a condition when placenta grows in the lowest part of the uterus. Smoking during pregnancy means that your child is starved of nutrients and oxygen. The only way to eliminate this negative effect is to quit smoking right now. |
