Smoking during and after pregnancy is associated with adverse infant health outcomes. We will present recent trends in cigarette and marijuana use, and prevalence of e-cigarette use, among Colorado women before, during, and after pregnancy.

Interventions to address prevention and cessation of use around the time of pregnancy will be reviewed.
