No answer 3 2.8% 104 100 Most of the present smokers (97.1%) did not try to quit smoking during the three months before they got pregnant. This line of answering can be linked with the percentage of women who did not have knowledge of their pregnancy until after 13 weeks. (94.50%) However, it does not in any way indicate that more previous knowledge would have caused this group to change their smoking behaviour. Question 10 (11): At home (at work) are you regularly exposed to passive smoke Just over a half of the pregnant women interviewed were exposed to passive smoking in their homes. The present smoker’s exposure to smoking stands at a high of 30%. Furthermore, the percentage of those women who had never smoked experienced passive smoking at a figure of 9.50% with 11.5% of exsmokers being exposed.

Of note is the figure of ex-smokers who indicated non-exposure to passive smoking at 15.5%. The highest measurement is claimed by present smokers 21.50% indicating that they are not exposed to passive smoking in the home. Likewise the line of questioning relating the exposure of present smokers to passive smoking in the workplace secured a figure of 29% saying no. Moreover, the practice of passive smoking exposure in the workplace indicated a high level of non-exposure at 55.50%. Six and a half percent (both ex-smokers and non smokers( have indicated that they have exposure to passive smoking in the work place which in turn indicates a lack of monitoring of the law which prohibits smoking in the work place. The relevance of the workplace line of questioning is not so significant given that
34.50% of the interviewees did not work outside the home. 2 persons declined to answer.
