That smoking in pregnancy is a real gun pointed at his unborn child (and forgive the strong image, but there it is), you know all too well. Risks of miscarriage and birth defects are precisely the damage that too many cigarettes smoked during the period of expectant mothers can cause. However, to seriously affect the health of babies in the womb, is not only the smoke that comes from the mother, but also the person who the pregnant woman and inadvertently absorbs through his blood, comes to the unborn.
It is a discovery of which reads better in the April issue of the journal Pediatrics, which comes to us from the University of Nottingham (GB). As measured by the study, secondhand smoke can lead to an increase of 23% chance that the fetus is born dead, and a risk of congenital 13%, and this effect tends to increase if the smoker next to the mother and his companion (for obvious reasons of continuous exposure).
The survey is quite large, in fact, come from 19 different studies on samples of the population in Asia, Europe and USA. "The smoking of mothers during pregnancy is well recognized as an opportunity to deliver a series of serious risks to the health of the fetus, including fetal mortality, low birth weight, premature birth and a number of serious birth defects such as cleft palate, foot wrong and heart problems.
" Explains Dr. Jo Leonardi-Bee, of the British Studies Centre for Tobacco Control at the University. And again: "Since passive smoking exposure to tobacco toxins in the same range as experienced by active smokers, although at lower levels, it is likely that by coming into contact with secondhand smoke increases the risk of some or all these complications.
" To highlight that not only would be exposed to risks to their health and the child waiting mothers during pregnancy, but also even the smoke absorbed in the months before conception, would be harmful. In short, data in hand, stop smoking, not only for yourself but also the good of the children that are already there, or will be.
