Purpose: In this study, it was aimed to describe the smoking status of women during pregnancy who had had delivery in the Gynecology and Obstetric Department of Konya Meram Medical Faculty of Selcuk University; their husbands are also investigated to identify their attitudes towards smoking. Material and Methods: This study was carried out on women who delivered between June 22, 2004 and Jaunary 31, 2005. During this period 830 infants were delivered. The ınitial decision and attempt was to include all of these women in the study. However, because of several reasons only 600 (72.3%) were included. Questions related to smoking in pregnancy, the educational status of their husbands and themselves, their socioeconomic status and the harmful effects of smoking that could affect their babies and themselves were asked in a face-to-face interview with the mothers on the first day after the parturition. The chi square test was used for statistical significance. Results: The percentage of women who had smoked at any time during pregnancy was 7.3%. The percentage of women who smoked throughout pregnancy period was 2.3%. The percentage of current smokers among the husbands of the responders was 56.7%. When the smoking status of husbands of the women who had smoked at any time during pregnancy was compared with non-smoker mothers, the percentage of current smokers was significantly higher (p<0.05). It was observed that women had difficulty expressing the harmful effects of smoking on their babies and themselves. The study subjects did not appear to have adequate advice or support from health care providers regarding giving up smoking or protecting themselves from environmental tobacco smoking. It was determined that the women who smoked during pregnancy were desirous to smoke after delivery as well. Conclusion: This situation shows that new plans such as giving education especially to pregnant women should be prepared.
