This study is looking at whether stopping smoking during pregnancy or while breastfeeding can help prevent babies from gaining weight too quickly. Researchers are testing two approaches: a multicomponent behavioral intervention (which includes education, feedback, financial rewards, and peer support) and an education-only control group. You might be able to join if you are a woman between 18 and 39 years old, less than 20 weeks pregnant with one baby, and currently smoke at least one cigarette a day, confirmed by a urine test (urine cotinine test). The main goal is to see if participants in the intervention group successfully quit smoking by the end of their pregnancy, as verified by a urine test. The current status of this study is unclear, and it plans to enroll 48 participants.

Study design

This is an interventional study that will randomly assign 48 pregnant women who smoke to either a multicomponent behavioral intervention or an education-only control group.

What's involved

You would participate from your first prenatal visit through 6 months after your baby is born. The multicomponent intervention involves education, counseling, monitoring, feedback, financial incentives, and family support.

Compensation

Contingent financial incentives are part of the multicomponent behavioral intervention. No other compensation is stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

All women and their newborns will be followed from enrollment to 6 months postpartum.
