for all pregnant mothers who smoke

And with the thought that my baby would choke and struggle with every breath I took from my cigarette, that was enough reason for me to quit. Especially when your baby is growing in the womb, getting bigger, and has little space, they can hardly escape your smoke. I saw some heart-wrenching videos of a baby in the womb of a mother who smoked. The baby moved as if having cramps with every breath, and from its movements, you could see how it struggled and couldn't escape because it was already so big. It was resisting by moving against the smoke. They filmed this to study how babies in the womb react to cigarettes. If you see it, you really have to turn away—it's so pitiful.

amniotic fluid tastes gross with all that tar and nicotine in it, and your baby is taking sips of it. Just imagine a glass of water and me throwing some tar and nicotine into it, along with other carcinogens. You wouldn't drink that, would you? Your baby will, though. He can't grab another glass; he has no other clean drink, no choice. Pathetic, right? So, with this knowledge, I thought to myself, I'd be a terrible mother to my unborn child if I kept smoking. With every puff, your baby chokes a little and gets damaged. The worst thing is that he or she doesn't choose to take in all those carcinogens. You, as a smoking mother, make that choice for him because you just have to smoke. And before he's even grown up, you're giving him bad lungs, weak lungs at least, so he already has a much higher percentage chance of cancer in his adult life. Well, I would feel guilty as a mother, and so no matter how much I wanted it and how hard it was, I made the choice not to smoke for the baby in my belly. I can later say, for your health, I quit smoking and gave you clean amniotic fluid during your stay in my womb. Please remember this: if you're mature enough to choose to become a mother and have a child, then also be mature enough to give your child a good start, a healthy start in this world. Love, Marina
