Choosing a Tobacco-Free Life

Question 10 • {MDVA} Healthy Living [Semester Only] (M)

Which of the following statements is NOT true regarding smoking and pregnancy?

Answer
A
Smoking mothers have higher rates of miscarriage.
B
Smoking mothers have higher rates of stillborn deliveries.
C
Smoking mothers are more likely to deliver their babies early.
D
Smoking mothers are more likely to have babies with high birth weights.

Explanation

Smoking during pregnancy is associated with increased risks of miscarriage, stillbirth, and premature delivery. It can also restrict fetal growth, making low birth weight more likely—not high birth weight. Therefore, the statement that smoking mothers are more likely to have babies with high birth weights is NOT true.
