Hi! Could you tell me pls what is the degree of getting pregnant if you smoke? Does smoking reduce my chances of getting pregnant? In what measure? What shall I do? Do I have to quit smoking NOW or is it ok if i continue on smoking, but less cigarettes per day? What shall \i do? I am taking now folic acid, as i know it is good to take it when trying to conceive. What else shall i do? Thanks.

I would advise you to keep taking your folic acid, try to quit if you can if you cant quit cut down your intake daily, you will be prone to miscarry cos it weakens the uterus lining so they say. But i know girls that have smoked all the way through there pregnancy and the baby has been suffering from asthma or come out really small cos it didnt grow properly. Best thing is to stay healthy for yuo and your baby. Good Luck in whatever you decide to do.

you better quite smoking if truely u are indeed trying to concive, if you u ask ur doctor about it, am sure he will tell u to quite smoking for now, atleast let the the medcine u are using now have its way in ur body, also i will suggest u add calcium to that folic acid u are using it will also help, put pls darling for now pls quite smoking, am not saying u shuld leav it but just for some time in ur life.
Best of Luck while trying.

I have never heard of smoking affecting your getting pregnant, but you should really quit while pregnant. Its really bad for the baby, and it also makes the baby more at risk for SIDS if you smoke while pregnant.

I've read in several books, magazines, websites, etc that you should treat your body when you are trying to conceive as if you are already pregnant. I don't know that smoking hinders your efforts, but it can't hurt to be at your healthiest now.

Smoking is something you enjoy, and you should not quit, you should keeping smoking. Smoking is not that bad as people thinks. you did what makes you happy

smoking doesn't have to do with conceiving...you should reduse smoking or better stop it in order to prevent other health problems...the only problem with the baby is that is gonna be bornsmaller that is supposed to be...this will not affect it's growth though...

QUIT!!! Talk to your doctor! Smoking weakens the lining of your uterus, making it easier to miscarry!!! Do what's best for yourself and your baby and QUIT!!!

I don't really think that it makes a huge difference, but you may as well give up because you will have to give up when you are pregnant.
