Hi
Please don't shoot me down for this!
I gave up smoking as soon as i found out i was pregs (bout 6 weeks). However, i then started smoking again about 2/3 weeks after ds was born (obviously not in the house or around him). I fully breastfeed. Is there any evidence that smioking is either detrimental for ds or doesnt it make a difference?
A friend told me that her mother had asked and that the HV's and midwives were adamant that it would not effect her baby. But this was 20 or so years ago and am now worried that i shouldn't have snapped up this 'advice' so readily.
