QUITTING SMOKING ELEVATES
BABY’S MOOD
New research shows that women who quit smoking during pregnancy
are more likely to give birth to children with a more easygoing
temperament. The study of more than 18,000 children revealed that
children born to pregnant women who stopped smoking were less likely
to display unpredictable behavior or to be stressed by new situations
than children born to smokers. The study showed that children born to
smokers were most likely to have the lowest scores for positive mood
among all the children studied. This study shows that pregnant women
who smoke not only exposed their unborn babies to chemicals that could
affect their development, but may also pass on traits and behaviors that
are associated with their smoking.
Exposure to tobacco smoke can cause a variety of serious and lifelong
harmful effects. If you smoke, it is in your best interest to quit for your
own health and the health of loved ones around you. Your doctor is
an excellent resource for information about and methods for breaking
the habit. For additional information about today’s topic, call WISE
