It's not about encouraging her to smoke ...it's about letting her know she's not alone in her struggle for wanting to stop or cut back..everybody doesn't have that same mind frame it takes others longer than some#ijs like i said,earlier good lucky hun

I don't know why everyone is trying to be so diplomatic and sweet and basically encouraging each other to smoke. Just because a few of you got lucky and your babies were fine doesn't make it any less of a risk. Of your 32 weeks preg and still haven't cut back I don't see how stopping now will reduce any problems. By the way I was an avid smoker too and I stopped cold turkey at 6 weeks and haven't touched one since.

I used an electronic cigarrette. I still have the last step to go before I'm completely nicotine free, but it's the only way I was able to quit. Haven't had a cigarette in nearly four months! Do your best. Baby will indeed go through withdrawals after delivery though.

I smoked with my first pregnancy and my little girl was fine. I did cut back alot Like maybe 3  day. I would just say just try and not smoke for as long as you can stand it then if you need one or two a day go for it. I would just cut back as much as you can. Good luck, I know its a hard thing to do!

Im 32+5days and im a smoker as well it's really hard to quit my nutrition specialist and my doctor knows about it...they both told me that it would be great if i could quit but if i couldn't that i should cut back as much as possible....so try to cut back as much as possible i also found away to stop a craving for it i eat starch lol not the best option but it helps me and also find something to keep ypur mouth and hands busy i have washed my baby girl clothes four times because it takes up most of my time even though she isn't here yet...and don't mind the bitchy comments...im pretty sure she has something she can't stop doing also good luck hun i hope this could help a little

I'm not trying to be rude but quitting is best for you and your baby's health. And you said please help so here is my recommendation, tell your doctor you want quit.  He/she can help you wean yyourself off the nicotine. They might be able to even direct you to local groups to help quitting. Our local hospital has weekly meetings for quitting and they're free! Good luck. I'm sure it'll be hard but totally worth it in the end :-)

People are very rude on this site

Cutting back would be good for both of you. But my SIL smoked with both of her pregnancys, she ended up having big healthy 10 lb babies. Maybe if you cut back you can try saving the money you would normally spend on the extra cigarettes to save for something special for you or your baby. Set a daily/weekly goal to cut back a certain number per day/week. Good luck.

People are so rude one reason I don't post some stuff out here.. I smoke with my second she was fine I did cut back. I am not saying to keep smoking or stop.. but if your doctor knows and everything.g seems fine don't worry..

[dwhite86]

No one has the right to judge,sweetheart as long as your doctor is aware and hasn't said anything regarding your child's health then screw what everyone else has to say.

[dwhite86]

No one asked for your smart *** comments. Try to cut back as much as you can.im pretty sure your little one will be ok.

Keep smoking your almost done and havent stopped. I cant believe people put a cigarette before their child. Poor baby
