Please count only discussions, not reading materials or videos.” The option of interest read, “How smoking during pregnancy could affect my baby.”
Proportion (95% CIs) among all smokers before pregnancy who answered question on PRAMS (unweighted n = 29 185).
Statistically significant chi-square test (p < .001) of difference between nondaily smokers compared with all daily smokers.
