Well that just proves my point. It doesn't affect you, so you don't mind.
Yes exactly. It effects my baby, Thats why it doesn't bother me
You're missing the point. What happens when something you enjoy gets banned?

While I am totally in favour of having as healthy a pregnancy as possible, and obviously doing the utmost to keep your baby healthy, that's not really a valid argument. You could say that because you have chosen to have a baby, why should other people not be allowed to smoke?
Have I once said at any point that people shouldn't be allowed to smoke because I'm pregnant?

All I said was that it's nice to go into a bar and not have to worry about smoke.
Well no, but you did say that it's about time smoking in public places was banned. I'm not having a go at you at all, and certainly not meaning to speak about your pregnancy in a negative fashion. I was just making a point. You support the ban, I don't.
