So I have a question, and I hope no one judges me but before I got pregnant I was a cigarette smoker...I stopped as soon as I found out I was pregnant. Now that I have birth 2 weeks ago, I have been kinda craving for a cig...Now my question is, if I do happen to have a cig will the nicotine pass thru the breastmilk since I am pumping and feeding her my milk?

@babyjunebug, @raegenice thx ladies...my cravings haven't been bad yet...sometimes i feel like having one but I don't feel like I NEED one...but I don't have a feeling I'm gonna go back...it's a bad habit I need to break...
It will pass through breast milk. They say if you have to smoke do it right after breastfeeding or pumping so your body has the maximum amount of time to cut down on the amount of nicotine before the next feeding. Also the most dangerous part is the chemicals. It's not just smoking around your baby, it's the chemicals that linger in your clothes and hair that your baby breathes in when you hold them. I've never been a smoker so I don't know how bad the cravings get, but if you've been off for nine months maybe it's worth fighting. Whatever you decide good luck momma!
Sadly I believe it does pass through to the milk and in high levels at that. I've read it can affect your milk supply and your baby even after you've smoked because it lingers in the air as well. But I think you should talk to your OB or a lactation consultant if you're really feeling the urge. Good luck momma.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...

Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
@allizayesmom, sure
