Trusts should provide all pregnant women (including low risk) with consistent messages regarding healthy lifestyle advice including nutrition and smoking cessation (NICE 2008). 2. Trusts should ensure they work in partnership with Smoking Cessation Services to develop services to meet the needs of pregnant teenagers (NCSCT 2014).
