It’s a joke, but I’m 43 and my mom knew others who were pregnant around the same time and told to smoke by actual doctors so they’d have a smaller baby and easier birth.

My grandmother started smoking after her doctor suggested that she take it up in order to help her lose weight after pregnancy. She smoked the rest of her life.

Did she live to be a 110 years old

On a related note, I also wonder I wonder how many older people self-treated ADHD/ADD with nicotine without realizing what was going on.

I'm 41 and my mom didn't quit but the doctor talked her into cutting down to a couple a day.

edit-also i was 10lbs and ended up the tallest in my family lol

Doctors still do this, at least in Germany. When you're a smoker and getting pregnant, your doctor will most likely not try to bully you into quitting, instead they inform you about the risks and recommend you to cut down the smoking to a minimum but they will also acknowledge that you will most likely not overcome your addiction while your body is already under a lot of stress.
