I'm not a fan of smoking in general, but I think it's downright trashy to smoke while holding your baby in your arms (whether youre BFing or just sitting there).
Edit: Who are you, anyways?
Yeah, no way. Once, we were meeting up with some friends at a restaurant and had LO with us. I didn't realize that there was a smoking section in that restaurant, and as soon as I noticed it, I told them we weren't staying. So we left, and our friends stayed. I'm sure it seemed pretty bitchy, but I didn't care. No way would I smoke while BFing.
I'm not a smoker but honestly thought the question was (besides MUD): if you smoke as a mother who breast feeds, not smoke while in the act of breast feeding.

@hlcollums While I don't agree with either practice I think there is a huge difference between smoking a cigarette while holding your baby and going outside without your child, smoking a cigarette and then breast feeding later.
I agree with you. There is a huge difference. But I think that both are dangerous for baby (and mom), and I could not justify smoking just because baby is not in my arms at the moment.
Thank you for participating. Those of you that thought the poll was about smoking while a baby is in your arms--you are total idiots. The poll was about breastfeeding moms that smoke.

I think you're an idiot for even starting this poll.

Obvi someone has a guilty conscience and wants support!
No.
ETA: my gif's are failing me
I don't really think that makes it any better.
ETA: I'm appalled that there are actually yes votes. I voted no because I value my child's life and health. Disgusting.
I don't smoke. It was a poll..

I wasn't actually.
Since you referred back to my "idiot" comment, you were obviously referring to me. Quit trying to be smart.. it's really not working for you.
Or, let me guess, this poll was for a "friend".

Your worst nightmare...

I genuinely started this poll out of curiosity. I'm not here to start anything...but if that's what ya'll want to think go right ahead.
