When they are born they have to spend many months in intense care at the hospital, otherwise they'll die of the withdrawal symptoms. They're addicted to nicotine just like mommy. They typically grow to become small, weak and sickly, and they cry much more.

Can a unborn baby die from what mum eats?

An unborn baby shares anything the mother eats, drinks or breathes because her blood moves through the placenta, the connection between the mother and baby that provides nutrition for the baby. There are certain medications that pregnant mothers should not take because they may cause birth defects. In the 1970's a tranquilizer called Thalidomide taken by pregnant mothers caused their child to be born with no legs and arms. Because babies are so small, a substance that might only make a larger person ill can have a much greater effect. Alcohol is another substance that can damage the unborn child. A child that is born with fetal alcohol syndrome may be physically disfigured, or mentally deficient. Pregnant mothers should not consume alcohol, take aspirin, or smoke cigarettes. Ask an obstetrician or a pediatrician for more details on this issue.
