Smoking while pregnant doubles risk of sudden unexpected infant death, study finds



According to a new study by The Seattle Children’s Research Institute in collaboration with Microsoft, smoking during pregnancy, even one cigarette a day, can double the risk of sudden unexpected infant death (SUID). Scientists analyzed the habits of mothers who smoked for all live births from 2007 to 2011. They found that if women abstained from smoking during pregnancy, it would lower the SUID rates by 22 percent.
