My advice is to stay well away from her - nothing you say will change how she acts. If pregnancy is not a strong enough reason to stop a woman from these vices then I’m afraid nothing will stop them.
Good luck with your own pregnancy

I know what you mean, but theres not much you can do.. The only thing would be to say dont you worry about the risk of smoking that much and drinking that much might harm the baby??? say you know someone who did it and they had an affected child because of it, facts scare people.

sadly there is nothing much you can do..she must know the risks in doing what she’s doing..You could quietly say “do you really think you should do that” but she’ll possible tell you to bog off………

you have to stop her. That will really harm her child. It could even kill it before it is born. Smoking especially can cause early breathing trouble. My mother smoked when she was pregnant with me and I had to go on a machine to keep me alive when I was born because I couldn’t breathe on my own. And my mother drank while she was pregnant too and it means I have a REALLY good chance of becoming an alcoholic which is why I don’t drink. Don’t let her do that to her child. you have to stop her. Don’t worry about embarrassing her. Think about what she is doing. It is wrong!

I would print out some information - pictures included and give them to her. Maybe she isn’t as educated as you are and knows someone who did the same thing when she was pregnant and their baby turned out ok, so she might not know the horrible things that could happen.

You can’t make anyone do something they don’t want to do. Only they; them self can do something about it if they’re willing to. If that poor innocent baby growing inside of her doesn’t convince her to stop what makes you think YOU could convince her to stop? I think it’s pretty pathetic when women smoke/drink while they’re pregnant because they’re only thinking about themselves. I would do anything for my baby no matter what because he means the world to me and I would never put his health in danger just because I can’t kick a dirty habit such as drinking or smoking. I say mind your own business and just worry about yourself and your baby. Good Luck and Congrats.

Does she get prenatal care? Does she have family around? If she does, then she already knows the risks and nothing you do or say will change her behavior. It’s hard to believe these days that anyone could not know the risks involved with that behavior.

Weird, isn't it? I have the same feeling towards you! If you 'cared', as you say you do, you wouldn't bring life into this world of suffering at all. The truth is, despite your sanctimonious judgments, you don't care either. You will try to kid on that you do, but you don't. YOU want the baby - which is selfishness in its highest form, pure and simple. The baby has no option but to be born and face whatever the world throws at it. Everyone speaks of love, but if anybody actually knew the meaning of it, they could never be so evil as to bring life into the world. I expect the thumbs down to come from far and wide, but popularity is not a prerequisite for truth and what I say is true whether you can stomach it or not.
