The dangers of smoking and drinking during early pregnancy

Many pregnant women ask, can they smoke and drink in the early stages of pregnancy? Are there any hazards? Cigarettes and alcohol are not good things in themselves. If you smoke and drink regularly, it will harm your body, not to mention whether you can smoke and drink in the early stages of pregnancy. What if some pregnant women can’t control themselves? So let’s talk about the dangers of smoking and drinking in early pregnancy! I hope everyone can take this seriously and quit smoking as soon as possible.

1: Smoking during pregnancy is not only harmful to the fetus, but also very detrimental to their own health. Reports show that pregnant women who smoke are 1 to 2 times more likely to experience complications such as placental abruption, bleeding, and premature rupture of membranes during labor than normal pregnant women.

2: In addition to the above indirect effects on the fetus, smoking during pregnancy also has direct effects on the fetus. Smoking can speed up the fetal heart rate and reduce breathing movements. Nicotine and other toxic substances in cigarettes can also penetrate into the placenta through the blood, be transported to the fetus, and even cause damage to the immature organs.

Therefore, for the healthy growth of the next generation and for the health of pregnant women themselves, pregnant women should stay away from cigarettes, avoid passive smoking, and spend their pregnancy and childbirth period in a fresh and pleasant environment.

However, there were many women who continued to smoke and had several healthy children. You can go to the hospital for a check-up. If there is no problem, you should keep the baby. After all, miscarriage has a great impact on the mother.

These contents about the dangers of smoking and drinking in early pregnancy also remind expectant mothers that they should not smoke or drink for the sake of their own and their children’s health! I also hope that those expectant mothers who are addicted to smoking and drinking can restrain themselves for the sake of their baby's future happy and smart life. This is the best choice for both themselves and their baby.
