The love that a mother feels for her son is so great even if only a month ago that she has been conceived, that she is able to quit smoking for him, and it seems to us the most normal thing, it is not a sacrifice because you do it with the knowledge that It is best for him, thus avoiding suffering a miscarriage, sudden death of the baby, respiratory problems, etc., but then how much do you love your mother? Why then do you smoke again?
A survey conducted by the Department of Health of the Generalitat, the Survey of Tobacco in Pregnant 2006, has shown that only in Catalonia the 73.2% of women quit smoking when they become pregnant, but after childbirth they recover the habit.
The Generalitat will start a program for pregnant women to quit smoking, but also continue after the birth of the baby, following a program during pediatric control in smoking parents.
This initiative will be extended throughout the health network, professionals in the areas of sexual and reproductive health, obstetricians, gynecologists, pediatricians, etc., will be trained to adequately recommend future parents about smoking from the moment they plan to have a son, and after taking the first step, after 9 or 12 months without smoking, do you think it is worth doing again ?, you will continue to be harmed and your child will begin to be a passive smoker.
