Both will definitely affect you, and smoking reduces a mans sperm count. I'm not sure about alcohol for him though.
If you want to conceive again, you need your body to be as healthy as possible first, meaning no smoking or drinking and eat properly. Take folic acid or even prenatal vitamins while trying to conceive.
Both men and women can have fertility issues if they smoke and drink, especially if it's heavy. For women, they can have as much as a 40% decrease in fertility from smoking alone. The chances of conceiving increases quite a bit if she quits. For men, the sperm are less motile and less likely to attach to the egg, a lab test found that 2/3 of the men who smoked had sperm that failed the attachment test. Again, stopping smoking will improve how his sperm work.
Producing milk will not lower your chances of conception. Many women accidentally get pregnant while they are breast feeding.
If you were smoking during your last pregnancy, that may be one of the reasons you lost the baby at 27 weeks. Smoking during pregnancy increases risk of still birth, preterm labor, IUGR, and pregnancy induced hypertension. If you are smoking now, I recommend you try to quit for at least a few months before trying to conceive again. You should use pregnancy as a time to improve your health.
Sorry about your loss
my man drinks and smokes heavily daily, it was hard to conceive but we finally did it after 2 yrs of trying, so i would say yes drinking and smoking does affect the fertility
