Parents smoke

Hey... Im justing wondering if anyone has any ideas on what to say to my sisters and parents. I have 4 sisters and both my parents, we all live in the same house.... They all smoke and I really want them to stop smoking in the house or near me whilst I'm pregnant. I'm only 14 and I feel quite feeble when asking them not too... Same thing applies with my friends too? Why dont they understand? Advice? :/ <3<3<3

  • my boyfriend smoked when i was pregnant but just try and remind them to break the habit, just little hints like "Bet you can't wait to be an aunt", "i want the baby as healthy as possible" stand your ground and say you want whats best for your baby, family is harder to get through to than friends. Also seeing my carbon monoxde level helped break the habit for my boyfriend. just perservere and if you still have no success then take it upon yourself to walk away etc and remiind them when your leaving that by them doing this their hurrting your unborn baby. Sorry i can't help more hun :)
