for struggling pregnant drug users..I quit after almost ten years!

I have previously posted that I have been trying to quit smoking marijuana..I am 8 weeks+2 today..yesterday I hit my hotel to ease constipation, but however today..NOTHING..no major craving or anything. DH smoked in front of me this morning and because I wasn't feeling well, he asked if I wanted to hit the joint one time..I easily said no. I have been smoking since teenage years to self medicate my meniere's. Though I feel the vertigo when I get up from laying down, I am positive I can hold on until my appt July 3rd to find a prescribed remedy. I was SO doubtful and worried about quitting, the ease is a TOTAL shock.. I couldn't quit when being drug tested for probation at 16, instead I used someone's urine..I was truly addicted. I just wanted to share my story with anyone struggling to quit a drug habit..once your realize that you are doing it for the BABY, the rest is a no brainer. Have faith and be strong.

Thank you! I am VERY proud! :) I keep telling myself this baby and the good Lord has faith in me, because they chose ME to be it's mother. It was just too easy after that. I hope this helps someone else who has lost faith in trying to better themselves for their unborn child.
