What does fetal smoking syndrome mean?

Fetal smoking syndrome or fetal tobacco syndrome is when a mother smokes cigarettes when pregnant and gives birth to a "deformed" baby. This is usually far less dangerous or deforming than alcohol during pregnancy. I myself am a fetal tobacco child just because I was born in the era where there was no precaution or understanding. Its more physically deforming than mentally deforming. I plan to become either a geneticist or a chemist when I grow up. I have a profound understanding of all sciences and often times philosophize. Im to a lesser degree physically deformed having only an upturned nose and "skinny" eyes... Other than that I get compliments on a daily basis about my looks.
