I need help to at least cut back on smoking but it's hard while preg because you actually crave them ☹ I have quit…

I do wish you all the best . @lydia09876,

@krenee1120, no I knew what was coming lol

I wasn't being rude or holier than though. So miss me with that . I was simply stating from a point of someone who has been there . I know it's hard as hell to quit even when not pregnant . But i offered something from what I watched that helped me . But if I had to choose the lesser evils I'd vape for sure and quit from there . & remember if you can quit for 7 days your over then your over the hump and nicotine is out of your system . Vaping would be a lot more healthier for you both. I apologize if you thought I was being judgmental. I wasn't trying to be .

@bluepenguin, ty

I wish the best for you and hope you can quit smoking, you can do it! 💕

@ohbabybaby88, right

@lydia09876 no problem girl I got you. I'm so tired of hearing the holier-than-thou comments all over this app. Not one of us is perfect. Some people need to keep that in mind when making comments

@ohbabybaby88, and I got Tuesday to the doc I'll ask there

@ohbabybaby88, thank you so much I am aware and that's why I want to quit but people tell me this and that no shit I know that's why I want to quit

Okay I really don't think she needs to hear about how she's hurting her baby or anything negative, obviously she's aware. Just in case you ladies haven't been smokers in your life hearing that crap doesn't make it easier. Not ok to try to make her feel guilty. As if she doesn't already, geez smh. 😲

Girl I feel you it's NOT easy at all. Patches are ok to use while pregnant because you're only getting nicotine. You can use a low dose if your craving isn't too terrible.

I agree with @juicyjay1. There's a lot of harsh chemicals that can detriment the baby's and your health. I can imagine how hard it can be to quit, however you are carrying another human being.

It's a video out that I saw and a show on BBC. That test the toxins of smoking and how it suffocates the baby . Shows the amount of air and other toxins in the umbilical cord. Smoking legit suffocates the baby. That was enough for me when I found out at 4 weeks . I was a vapor I didn't smoke cigarettes anymore. Nicotine came with its own issue it can only have 3 ingredients in vapor juice but the nicotine is the WORST. Look up affects of nicotine alone. For me my child was more than enough reason to quit . I did it cold turkey and don't miss nor crave .

*more harmful short term meaning stress of quitting clearly it's better overall

@lydia09876 have you tried switching brands to American spirit which has less chemicals? Worrying about it too much isn't good either keep that in mind. I'll likely be crucified for saying this but plenty of parents smoke with healthy pregnancies sometimes quitting is more harmful

You shouldn't do it. Think about how much you're hurting your baby

I feel so bad for smoking but I crave it

I've been vaping. It's better cause it's only nicotine not all the other chemicals. I'm sad because the device i use Juul isn't going to be sold anymore and it's the only one I liked
