The Okeene Municipal Hospital supports the Oklahoma Tobacco Helpline.

TOBACCO STOPS WITH ME.
Pregnant smokers who quit in the first trimester lowered their risk of delivering preterm and small for age newborns to a level similar to that of pregnant nonsmokers.

Free help with quitting for pregnant smokers is available by calling the Oklahoma Tobacco Helpline at 1-800-QUIT-NOW (800-784-8669).
