so I have a question...so I used to smoke black and mild before I was pregnant and I think I want to after the baby but I plan on breastfeeding..so my question is ...Can smoking while breastfeeding effect my baby ?
I haven't smoked since I found out I was pregnant..
No matter what, if you smoke, the second hand smoke and chemicals will very easily get into your babies' system. I honestly think it'd be best not to risk it at all. But I would also say to ask your doctor and maybe read up on it. It could be like alcohol, best to have a drink right after breastfeeding and making sure it is out of your system entirely before feeding again. I just think better safe than sorry but I can imagine it has been hard quitting.
I read that if you're going to smoke do it immediately after you breastfeed. I would also wash my hands right after smoking.
yeah, you can't smoke still. the nicotine goes through your breast milk and could hurt your baby! I smoked cigarettes for 6 years and I always want one like bad!! but baby comes first.
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...

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...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
no it wasn't hard to quit bc it was a food reason..but I'm not going to be around my baby smoking I would've made sure there's no smoke around here .. I was just curious about the breast milk tho but thanks ladies @kimberkatherine @jewelslittlefield @m173
