Fathers to be smoking whilst their wives are pregnant also present a possible health risk to babies but nobody would go up to a man and ask him to stop smoking next to his pregnant partner. Yet strangers do go up to pregnant women and give them a piece of their mind if they see them smoking.

You're so right about that. The worst I found when pregnant was complete strangers touching my bump...I have very strict personal space issues yet people in queues would think nothing of touching my bump without asking. ggrrrr. I probably would have been judged quite harshly for punching a pensioner though so I would smile sweetly and move back (not easy when you are roughly the size of a small elephant)
