In the United States in 2002, 12.2 percent of babies born to smoking mothers with low birth weight (less than 5.5 libras/2.5 kg) compared with 7.5 percent of babies born to nonsmoking mothers. 2 The low weight birth may result from insufficient development of the baby in the womb, premature delivery, or both. It has long been known that smoking slows fetal growth, and studies suggest it also increases the risk of preterm delivery (before 37 weeks gestation). Premature and low birthweight are at higher risk for serious health problems during the first months of life, permanent disability (including cerebral palsy, mental retardation and learning problems) and even death.

Also, if you quit at the end of the first trimester of pregnancy, have virtually the same chances that your baby is born with low weight a woman who never smoked. Even if she fails to quit in the first or second trimester, if at all during the third the baby’s development can be improved.
