So I was around second hand smoke for a while today and I'm kinda freaking out that I ruined my baby. Can you guys tell me your experiences with this? Did I ruin her for life? Or am I just a crazy pregnant lady?

You're a crazy pregnant lady. Lots of women smoke during pregnancy and their babies are fine. I'm not saying you should smoke while pregnant, or be around a lot of second hand smoke if you can avoid it, but you're baby will be fine. The major side effect of long term exposure is premature labor and low birth weight. I highly doubt that one afternoon is going to do anything to your baby. Chill.

Another long term affect of babies affected by second hand smoke is slowness.. they are behind in school... not as smart as the other children.. also can get asthma and other respitory problems..
BUTT as in saying this.. 1 day isnt going to make a difference, so i really wouldnt worry. your baby is fine !! sometimes it just cant be helped.

I was constantly worried about second hand smoke because my mother smokes like crazy and I used to yell at her everytime I would visit her because she would light up right beside me.....but both of my kids are fine so your baby should be fine. Your not crazy....LOL, I'm the same way when I'm pregnant, so I understand how ya feel. :)
