Smoking partner

Do any of your partners smoke? How do you handle it? My bf smokes, not in the house, but I’m still concerned about third hand smoke effects on my baby. Our pediatrician has already told him twice that he needs to quit and he said the pediatrician doesn’t know what she’s talking about . I feel like he constantly puts our baby in harms way. Lately he’s been lifting our baby high in the air and I felt concerned about it but I tried to give him room to just be a dad and then he ended up banging our babies head on the ceiling. I’m so over his lack of concern/ consideration for our child

And yes I’ve had multiple conversations with him regarding safety with our LO. I’ve tried educational video, pediatrician has spoken to him, I’ve tried couples counseling. I don’t know what else to do.

My mother in law lives with us and smokes, she goes outside and she has to change her shirt and wash her hands before she can hold him. Our pediatrician said that would be fine.

My bf does the same. I make him change wash hands, change shirt, brush his teeth. Our pediatrician still said it’s bad. She said the toxic chemicals get into the skin and hair etc

My mum smokes when I go to visit, as long as he does change wash etc you will be fine! With regards to the safety unfortunately I have nothing to offer but a shoulder 🩵
