I haven't read that prenatal exposure to pollution contributes to asthma - but our kids have more than prenatal exposure. I have read studies that link the development of asthma in children to maternal stress/hormones during pregnancy. Along time ago, people used to suppose that adopted kids had higher rates of asthma because of the psychological issues involved with being adopted. I haven't read anything recent about rates of asthma in adoptees but I'm glad the psychosomatic explanations are no longer used. Stress during pregnancy would make a lot more sense.

Xiomara has one respiratory infection after another this winter and was prescribed a nebulizer. Hopefully, it is not something that will continue.
