Will Smoking During Pregnancy Harm Baby?

HI... I believe I am 3 weeks pregnant. I quit smoking yesterday. I took a preg test today that came up positive. I smoked marijuana and cigarettes every day. I am no longer smoking! How concerned should I be at 3 weeks? Could I have harmed the baby?

Hello,
I can appreciate your concern about baby and i would like to tell you that smoking is definitely not good in pregnancy and it can harm the baby in many ways, so please stop smoking or any kind of other drug taking from now onwards.
You are just 3 weeks pregnant, so dont worry, your baby is absolutely safe, but be sure not to smoke during your pregnancy.
Hope this will help you and best luck for your pregnancy.
I find this answer helpful
