it is called passive smoking which is more dangerous than active smoking. advise your bf to desist from the practice of smoking as if affects your health when you are pregnant.

Yes it is just as bad. My mother smokes, and my wife who is pregnant, hates going over to my parents house, knowing she smokes. She has promised she won't smoke in the house, once the baby is born, but smoking around my pregnant wife is just as bad, as smoking around the baby if she was already born.

Second hand smoke is just as bad for you as if you were smoking yourself.
Ask him to smoke outside.
Good Luck!

If I were you I would be much more concerned with smog. The crud coming out of you car I would think would be a much bigger problem....
