Here is a possibility though...WAS she actually pregnant? With time spent on diet boards, this is a concern with a lot of overweight women...they're often mistaken for being pregnant, often asked when the baby's due.

Now I had to go and leave my two cents:
I don't think its up to the bartender to make the call on whether the woman is pregnant or overweight, or whether not showing at 1 mo. or showing at 4. Just as its not up to the clerk to withhold the cigarettes to a woman they "think" shouldn't be smoking right now because she looks pregnant. The only way to solve the problem was laid out in a novel by Robert A. Heinlein. You test people to determine the number of kids they can afford and take care of. Otherwise, getting pregnant is illegal unless you have a license. Then women who want to smoke/drink while pregnant will be jailed if getting pregnant, so they won't be able to smoke/drink.

This is a known femin azi and troll poster. She has been proven wrong more than any other poster on this site.
Only take her words as comic relief that denigrates Fathers for her hometown of NOW and SOW.

I totally understand your amazement. I too have seen what you are talking about. You'd think that in this day and age with the information and medical knowledge we have that people wouldn't do what they do, but no. My daughters friend throughout her entire pregnancy smoked and claimed it didn't bother her at all.
Her baby weighed 4lbs.
I'm against smoking. Mainly because of what it did to me and because my kids have asthma. My parents died young from smoking. And I don't care what anyone says, if you are exposed to enough of second hand smoke you will suffer from it.
Why hurt children and drag them down? Why claim that it doesn't hurt them? It's not hurting me! Yet they are in the doctors office getting tubes put in their ears and getting inhalers for their asthma. And being treated for bronchitis. But the smoke isn't bothering them. She's constantly out of breath too. Go figure. And the baby is always sick with ear infections.
Leaves you to wonder right? When do they learn? And when does it stop?

I wonder though about the asthma and stuff. My husband smokes, but all during pregnancy, he went outside to smoke. After our son was born, he continued...for awhile. Now, unfortunately, he's brought it back in the house, but he keeps it in another room. I can't for the life of me get him to take it back outside. Grrrrrrrr. Yet, our son still had asthma all this time, even though he wasn't initially around the smoke and I didn't/don't smoke. Used to, but I quite 4 years before he was born.

This original post is off topic, but what can one expect from a known femin azi PIG? Hmmmm?

When DGD was born 10 weeks early, she wasn't allowed around smokers OR even be in a smokers house.
DD and SIL still make it a rule - no smoking in their house (personally I think it is because it is so hard to get the stinky smoking smell out of the house).
