Thoughts on smoking cigarettes while breastfeeding? I havnt had one my entire pregnancy and I'm so stressed out/exhausted/in pain that I'm craving one really badly. I told my bf and he got pissed off that I would want to smoke after so long, and while breastfeeding. (Not during but you understand). Pros? Cons?

I would try and find something else to try and relieve your stress. I quit smoking when I found out I was expecting and I deff miss it but I just think I made it this far and the smell I don't want around my baby so that's what keeps me going.

My boyfriend still smokes so the smell is already on him.. I don't want to smoke all the time, I didn't even really do that before. Just when I needed one, like now. :( I've quit multiple times before, just because they were gross all of a sudden. They're not addictive to me. My biggest issue is, will it transfer through the breastmilk at all? @hannahbbtt

@fallon_fairytale, oh that I don't know. Is there a lactation specialist you can ask? I'm sure they'll tell you you shouldn't even smoke but still they should know if it would affect the milk at all.

it's not going to do anything to harm your breast milk, but in some cases it can affect your supply

Personally I don't think it's worth it. Nicotine transfers to your breastmilk therefore your baby is ingesting it also, along with whatever other chemicals are in the cigarette.
