Answer 5

Yes.  Smoking reduces the change of you getting pregnant, and if your partner smokes, he could be affecting it as well!  It messes up the process from both the man and the woman.

Besides this fact, it's absolutely horrible to smoke while you're pregnant.  Your baby will not be happy, as he/she will cry continuously because of their addiction to nicotine.  It can cause serious health issue with your baby, too.  

Smoking around children is an awful thing.  It is almost as bad as them smoking, but it starts at birth and continues until they move out.  They live much shorter and have health problems, and they most likely will smoke when they move out because they are so used to the smoky environment.

So, obviously, my recommendation is to quit smoking ASAP!!  Don't even try for a baby until you are 100% cigarette-free.
