cigarettes!

[ang848]

No i am not smoking while pregnant!
I was a smoker before i got pregnant and stopped cold turkey when i found out i was pregnant. I am now 21 weeks and now i crave a cigarette ALL THE TIME!

Does anyone have any ideas to help with this craving without hurting my baby?!

Just spend time around a smoker. That will make u not start again. I quit when I found out I was prego and now the smell of my MIL and her smokes just turns my stomach. Lol. Ill not smoke after this baby is born. It smells! I already feel sorry for all the hugs and snuggles my kids gave me after I had smoke. To think they had to smell that on me for a few years. Yuk.

I quit smoking when I found out I was pregnant, at six weeks. I'm now 34w2d and crave cigarettes all the time. I find the sun flowers to help a lot. I also don't want to start again after my son is born, but that's probably going to be so hard.

That is awesome! I really don't want to start again after my son is born.

My dad smoked for YEARS and he sucked lollipops (to keep his hands busy) and peppermints and it worked..he hasn't smoked in somewhere around 5 years

Sunflower seeds (the ones with the shell that way you have to work.to.get it off and keep your mouth busy), and chewing gum. That's what I had to.do.
