Women, especially those who are pregnant, may experience health problems as a result of the high smoke and pollution from the firecrackers. The mother and infant may be harmed by the smoke and pollution that firecrackers release. If the mother experiences respiratory issues in the early stages of pregnancy, the unborn child may also be impacted. Fire crackers frequently create poisonous vapours with high levels of nitrous oxide and carbon dioxide. Additionally, compared to non-pregnant people, pregnant women are more likely to experience these issues.
