Breathing in tar, arsenic, lead, carbon monoxide and nicotine (all found in cigarettes) will always harm your baby. As will alcohol. It doesn't matter how early it is in the prrgnancy, they will always do harm, maybe een more harm when it's really small.If you are serious about having a baby then you should be not smoking, drinking, but eating lots of fruit and vitamins and taking supplements. You will also need to save all the money you get from smoking etc because a baby is REALLY expensive and start buying the expensive items like prams and nappies now as you will need it all done by the time you give birth. You also need to get used to not going out for weeks at a time as you will have no life once the baby is born. Mind you if you are that desperate to have a baby so young, you must not really enjoy having a social life / holidays.You also need to sort out where you are going to live with your boyfriend, who's name it's going to be in and agree how he's going to support you. (If he's working full time, will he still get up to help you with the 3am feed?)Start learning and see your doctor as it seems you have a LOT to learn about having a baby, health wise and everything else.Good Luck!! xx

 you should definitely check if your pregnant regularly if you are planning on doing all of these thing's right now. They will for sure need to stop the second you find out your pregnant.
