How Cigarettes May Harm Developing Babies

Cigarette smoke contains about 4,000 chemicals. Researchers don't fully understand how that toxic mixture may cause birth defects.
But they have some suspicions.
Part of the problem may be that the baby isn't getting enough oxygen when mom smokes.
Nicotine, the addictive substance in cigarettes, causes blood vessels to constrict, which may choke off the supply of oxygen to the fetus.
And carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas that's present in high levels in cigarette smoke, binds more strongly to hemoglobin -- the molecule that ferries oxygen through the blood -- than oxygen itself, lowering the amount available to the baby.
"It personally absolute stuns me that some people still smoke during pregnancy," Hackshaw says.
Studies show 14% of women in the U.S. smoke while pregnant. That number jumps to 20% expectant mothers under age 25.


"The advice has to be 'don't smoke'," says Katz.
