i am prepared for backlash etc but not sure where else to post this. My friend who has a beautiful dd who she has never really bonded with is pg again and is desperate for a boy. she even gets dd to say her brother is cooking in there. she is due to find out sex in 3 weeks. however in an earlier scan the doctor told her that her baby has a hole in its heart and she has still continued to smoke.
i wouldn't stick my nose in and have a go as i understand that some pg women can't give up the fags due to pressure and stress (altho i managed to twice while pg and have never started again since giving up when i found out i was pg with dd2) but surely if you know your baby has a heart defect no matter how small, surely you would give the lo a fighting chance?
