When I found out I was pregnant, I was vaping mostly and smoking here and there. It was definitely hard to kick, but not impossible! I switched over to vaping entirely for a little while (went from 3mg to 0mg nicotine), and was able to get myself off the nicotine and oral habit of having it. It really sucked and makes you anxious/irritable for a little (for me anyways) but I haven't touched it since:)

Cold turkey and take it one moment at a time. Any time you’re nic fitting find something else to focus on for 5 mins and keep doing that, you CAN do it

Just quit hun. Might suck for a while but you already know it's not worth it. Find something to keep you busy. Activity outside like walking, swimming. Good books . Tell a friend for accountability so you can call them when you need help. Up your water intake a lot and make sure you're on your prenatal

I was smoking almost a pack a day when I found out I was pregnant w my first. It took a lot of tears and feeling emotions I was trying to block out w cigarettes. But you CAN do it.
When you know that if you kept smoking the entire pregnancy and have a “normal” pregnancy and seemingly “healthy” baby, their risk of SIDS DRAMATICALLY increases and they could struggle w breathing and asthma their entire life, smoking is not enjoyable. Keep that in mind when you crave a cigarette.

Just do it cold turkey. Yes it will be harder but it will just be done. Good luck!!!

Cold turkey girl, I quit the day I found out I was pregnant. There was no doubt in my mind about quitting cold turkey. Trust me, it was hard but my baby was way more important to me than nicotine. You can do it!

My siblings and I all had bad asthma/allergies as small children because my mom chose to continue to smoke while pregnant with us. Living with that condition as a kid and being in and out of the hospital for a simple cold turned into worse is no fun. Please think of your child’s future. It could mean life or death.

I did it cold turkey, with lots of suckers and gum to keep my mouth busy, also kept my hands busy by doing house/yard work

There is a good book called the easy way to quit smoking by Alan Carr. It’s very good I stopped 10 years ago using this and know lots of other people who did too
