Which of the following is true about cigarette smoke and pregnancy?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Babies born to women who smoked during pregnancy are at higher risk for birth defects, including cleft lip and palate, and are more likely to be born prematurely or have a low birth weight. Smoking during pregnancy also increases the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and respiratory problems in the baby. It is not safe for a woman to smoke while she is pregnant, and it is recommended that she quit before becoming pregnant or as soon as possible during pregnancy. There is no evidence to suggest that babies born to mothers who smoked during pregnancy tend to be overweight or that women who smoke during pregnancy are more likely to deliver after their scheduled due date.
