Guide for use:

Data should be collected after the birth.
‘After 20 weeks’ is defined as greater than or equal to 20 completed weeks’ gestation (>=20 weeks + 0 days).
‘Usually’ is defined as ‘according to established, or frequent usage; commonly, ordinarily; as a rule’. If a woman reports having quit smoking at some point between 20 weeks of pregnancy and the birth, the value recorded should be the number of cigarettes usually smoked daily prior to quitting.
