Stop smoking while I'm pregnant

[Princewife91]

Hi I'm 25 and recently found out I was pregnant. I've been smoking cigarettes for a while now and i know I need yo quit. Ove tried stopping cold turkey AMD it seemed more stressful. I guess my question is do anyone have any ideas on how to quit smoking all together without stressing myself

keep yourself very busy surround youself by non smokers chew gum and cold turkey is probably the only option since other stuff has too many chemicals just take it day by day its not impossible you can do it

Get on the patch.  Talk to your doctor.  Don't let anyone give you that excuse that it is so stressful to quit smoking that you may as well keep smoking.  Smoking is poison for the baby, they'd rather have the stress.  But if you get the patch it should not be that stressful.  My brother quit in one day because -- guess what happened from his smoking, he had a heart attack and found out he needed a quadruple bypass.  (Wakes you up, right?)  He did it easily by using a patch, said he never missed the cigs.  I think the thing is, he had something more serious to think about, like, life.  And so do you.  Please stop however you do it.  If your doc suggests no patch, go to one of those stop-smoking therapists that does hypnosis.  

Good luck!
