lol yes you are being called upon. && yes you should have tagged the others that were basically engorging her, but it's sad. But hopefully she'll stop @babyboolala

@mrsruvalcaba God has a plan for my life! My only job is to execute it! Thank you for confirming that I'm doing so... 😔<---- humbled not sad!

ty @babyboolala but truth be told you and @olladysaidy are my life savers on this app, && have been very encouraging && thoughtful 😍

@olladysaidy @crystal0093 @mrsruvalcaba U ladies are a blessing and my sweetheart @d0llface_j3y is very open minded I believe to help! We should have taged the girls in this post that were telling her its okay to smoke because they smoke

@d0llface_j3y Hi...I can see where you are coming from. An addiction to nicotine can be debilitating. Well any form of addiction without control can be dangerous. As a mother you will learn to give up certain things for your child.....some learn this while the baby is still in the womb, while it takes others years of neglect before they finally realize how precious that life is. I don't need to tell you that you are harming your unborn child by smoking, nor do I have to tell you that the second hand smoke will harm your child later if you do continue to smoke. YOU know that deep down inside, but the addiction is too deeply embedded in your brain. To begin to change YOU and only YOU have to acknowledge it and want to change. If this negative habit is something you want to quit then you will need to find a positive habit. For me (I was a vivid smoker) it was chewing gum and working out. I still chew gum each time I enter a vehicle or drive anywhere...that is now a habit vs smoking. As for when anger hits.....I workout, taking out any frustration I have inside while at the same time analyzing why I am angry/what got me angry/how can I avoid feeling this way....point blank finding better choices in life. Lastly I don't have to tell you that you are killing yourself slowly...and you may not make it to grow old with your child or with those you love. If you need help....I am here to help strengthen your mind. For that is where it all starts.

@babyboolala thank you for tagging me on this post.

You only have to stop for nine months not yur whole life you know?? You can get thru this PLZ try to stop for your little baby's sake.

I know you could stop for the love of your unborn child.. @d0llface_j3y your almost there 2-4 more weeks girly

I just can't understand how smoking would be beneficial! And what kind of doctor says don't quit slow down? That is an abomination! If you can't deny yourself at all boo to where you only do it once in awhile you can deny yourself completely! I know you're strong enough to do this! @d0llface_j3y

was thinking the same question @d0llface_j3y & @babyboolala

Sorta I smoke every once in awhile when my blood pressure goes up so I don't make it worse on my child cause an anerism for him @babyboolala

@d0llface_j3y, Have you been able to quit honey ?

😔 Poor babies... @mrsruvalcaba

yes dang my jaw literally dropped!!! wow! @babyboolala

@dmariejj, @godsgift24 @olladysaidy @mrsruvalcaba @courtney89 @crystal0093 @dec7saggirl @kori_mommy

my mom smoked with all three of us. we are all fine. I was born pre mature. but there's no sign of it now.

i just worry because my mom smoked with me, and i have a few health issues because of it. nothing super serious, but you never know. the best part is youre trying! you are doing your best for the well being of your boy and thata great :) its better than smoking and drinking heavily your entire pregnancy. i dont think your a bad mom for smoking, like i said, my mom did and she was a great mother.

& the damage DOESNT happen after the baby is born.. All that will happen is nicotine withdraws.. & that rarely happens.. My mom smoked with all of her kids, my friends smoked with their kids, shit, people back in the day all they used to do was smoke.. If crack heads can give birth to healthy babies, so can we.. Don't worry so much, it really isn't as bad as people think..

Don't worry mama, I smoke too.. My OB told me not to quit but cut down.. My little man is fine, just measuring on the small side which is expected.. You have to be OK in order for baby to be OK.. Don't stress about it and DONT let anyone look down on you for that! You are only doing your best! I hate when people look down on pregnant women for smoking, like gtfo, they aren't our drs..

@kaity0117 also thank you for the support instead of saying I'm a bad mother and all this bs

Yeah just makes me Sad I didn't find out sooner so I could have stopped :/ Or never started

Well if you were a smoker before you got pregnant he is already dependant on it. Good for you for keeping the smoking to a minimum and your doc is right to get you not to quit outright. That you could do after the baby is born

I really do want to but I'm a nicotine addict and will admit it. I can't Handel the withdrawal and neither can my body right now I smoke for two months and drank the beginning of my pregnancy cause I didn't find out till about 9 weeks. Think my sons already nicotine addicted to now 😱@kaylhunt2

switching to ecig so I don't cause sids for my son and it's what all docs will say it's worse for a smoker to stop all together only reason I stopped first and second trimester got physically ill and now third trimester I'm so stressed from not smoking my bp was above the roof started smoking like 2 a Day and my bp went down a lot doc says better if I smoke only a couple a day. And talking to nurses usually older also say moms did it back in the day not good for you but not like it's horrible like most people make it out to be @kaity0117 honestly rather not smoke but it gets so bad I get really sick from not

@d0llface_j3y i used to live in kentucky, i remember how bad the smoke is and how hard it is to get away from it. even if youre not too worried about defects, low birth weight and early birth are gonna be really tough on both you and the baby. i mean, i know you are going to do what you want, youre grown and who am i to tell you to stop. i just think itd be better.

Well good for you for stopping and you should try your hardest to stop because once that baby is out the damage starts. Not only do u have to find the time, but second and third hand smoke is really not good for babies. Or anyone for that matter. It's a risk that can be completely eliminated by not doing it. Your doctor is crazy or a smoker if he didn't tell you there are many risks.

@kaylhunt2

Honestly doctor 😷 say not bad like people make it out to seem especially third trimester since all it does is cause early birth which I'm most likely having a c section due to my son being 4 pounds at 30 weeks and he can't get asthma unless it's hereditary to start with and will possibly cause a nicotine addiction. And since Im in the south I breathe in second hand smoke 🚬 everywhere since your allowed smoke in doors 🏠. Just worried about the nicotine addiction since no one on my side or my husbands have ever had asthma 👃

oh please please try to stop again! i know its so hard, i used to smoke and quitting was super tough but its going to be so worth it!
