Teenagers Smoking During Pregnancy ON PURPOSE!?

Really wish I was joking (although I wouldn't joke about such a thing) or this was some kind of bizarre satire, but apparently some teenagers are purposefully smoking during pregnancy because they want to minimise pain during child birth.

I genuinely believe smoking during pregnancy should be made illegal anyway, regardless of how well or whether it's enforced. This makes me furious, and I can imagine there's many mums, would-be mums and those who have struggled to have children who'd feel the same.

Thanks for the reports, everyone - we're not sure about this, so going to zap.
