umm
why would your smoke effect the baby if there is no baby yet?!?!?

Oh,,Thanks for prompt reply.

Im feared that, my sperm may be affected by smoke, so it may cause abnormaly baby birth or effects in baby.
Is it true?

Cos Im now trying to get a baby..but couldnt be able to stop smoking. My wife never smoked.
even before we make sex, i smoke some cigars.

So, I have panic that.. my sperm may damaged by instant smoking and may harm the baby if my wife get pregnant, that time..

A bit worry.. but advice me

Thanks

no i dont think that can harm your sperm at all lol

many women smoke before their pregnancies and their eggs are ver damaged? you shouldnt smoke around her while shes pregnant because that may harm the baby

yes, u r right.
but I asked in forum, cos i had a doubt. and wondering how the abnormally babies born. people sacred me.. it is because of the sperm.. mainly the smoker's sperm..
Thats why scared.
It is true that smoking while pregnancy is so bad. but wnated to make sure, smoking before sex and if that makes baby, could be bad for baby or not.

Thnaks for the answers
Im trying for babby. but i smoke lot. if i get a luck, then will stop smoking

Till then may smoke..but it may reduce the chance of making wife to conceive.

:)will see

No, it shouldn't affect your sperm.

But you might want to make a habit of smoking outdoors for when your partner gets pregnant. It's not healthy for her to be exposed to second-hand smoke while she's pregnant. That absolutely can affect the baby.

It might take you a while to stop smoking. If you're serious about it, you might want to start cutting back now before she gets pregnant, so that it's easier on you when she conceives.

Good luck.

good luck!!!!!!!!!

It won't affect the baby unless you are smoking around your wife while she is pregnant or she is smoking.

Best thing to do is quit smoking all together, especially if you're trying to have a baby- you wouldn't want your child to be subjected to the smell or the second-hand smoke.

As a smoker, I can say that smokers STINK! Very badly.

If you would like to be around a long time to see your children's children, then now would be the best time to quit. It will not damage your sperm, but think of quitting as cultivating the most fertile ground possibile to plant a seed in. Many people who have a difficult time conceiving have better luch if they begin to live as if they arlready have children. Quitting is hard and a pregnancy does not automatically mean you will be able to quit. For your self at least, quit now!

Look what I found. Apparently it DOES affect sperm.



Smoking may hamper a man’s fertility, according to a small study funded by cigarette company Philip Morris.

Scientists at the University of Buffalo compared sperm from screened sperm donors to sperm from 18 male smokers. In lab tests, the smokers’ sperm was less likely to bind tightly to an egg—a necessary step for fertilization.

Men who smoke also “should be aware that smoking can damage their sperm DNA, passing on faulty DNA to their baby. Concerned smokers should quit or be tested in a local andrology laboratory,”

“Like other cells in the body, human sperm carry a receptor for nicotine, which means they recognize and respond to nicotine,” Burkman explains.

In previous lab tests, the researchers had exposed sperm to nicotine. That “significantly altered” three important sperm functions, write the researchers.

ahaaaaa. One more reason to quit now!

wow! you learn something new everyday!!!!!!! thanks ingi!

Great info. i love the fact that it was a study by Phillip Morris. Any info re: female fertility?

Thanks allll replies..

This is what exactly I feared of.
I smoke almost a pack (20) per day. I found hard time to get my wife pregnant, though she never smoked.

I really find hard to quit , but as u guys say, smoking damages the sperm..
Will this cause the anormal baby born?
Im not telling the smoking during pregnancy which expose my wife for 2nd hand, but what Im asking is, my smoking habbit, will that cause abnormal birth, if my wife conceives..

Because all my concern is, some how I had a habit of smoking.. by this shouldnt affect others. specially the babies born
