Am i Overreacting ?? need advice

I used to smoke but completely hate it now and my Bf and his family smoke all the time &&every where in the house, cars etc. And when my daughter is born in a month I don't want her over there nor them coming to see her smelling like smoke because My mom who has never smoked a day in her life is dealing with a collapsed lung and lung cancer due to 2nd hand smoking. The smell of smoke harms my mom. And I just really fear for my daughter.

I don't think your over reacting at all.
One of my family members smoke and whenever they come over they know that they better not light a cigarette or I'd be all up in their face talking mad mess I cant stand the smell of it and could honestly end up in the emergency room if I'm around a smoker my lungs can't take it and swell up. So you do whatever you have to do to make sure they stay away from your baby and yourself since whatever you inhale goes to the baby.
But I'm sure they would understand if you talk to them and ask them to not smoke around or come near your daughter even after they are done smoking.
It's not like they can tell you otherwise it is your daughter and you are trying to prevent her from harm of second hand smoke.
