"I am pregnant and I am exposed to secondhand smoke, is it dangerous?"

Exposure to secondhand smoke during pregnancy can pose significant risks to both you and your baby. It is well-documented in literature and known in the medical community that secondhand smoke can harm the developing fetus and affect pregnancy outcomes. It is important to avoid exposure to secondhand smoke as much as possible to reduce these risks. Consider asking those around you to smoke outside or refrain from smoking when you are together to protect yourself and your baby's health.
