Second-hand (Passive) Smoke

If someone in your home smokes, their smoke can affect both you and your baby.

It can lower birth weight, increase the risk of SIDS, and make it harder for you to quit.

Babies exposed to smoke are more likely to be hospitalised with bronchitis or pneumonia in their first year.
