I'm not trying to judge but smoking is a lot more serious then eating a deli sandwich. You can cause harm to you and that child by doing so. I eat sushi with this baby too but I ea cooked sushi. I didn't know deli meat was a issue but I never really cared that much for it anyway. I have had a hoagie or two I think during this pregnancy. Smoking is hard to quit though so my hat is off to you for doing what you can to quit. Some people don't have that kind of well power.
honestly I think its ridiculous that we're comparing lunch meat to cigarettes. I'm a smoker and quit when I found out I was pregnant. everyones different but personally I think its just selfish if u can't quit for 9 months. longer if u breast-feed. I'm not saying its easy-peasy its the hardest friggin thing ever and I still crave one everyday but the health of my child is worth it. a cigarette will kill u / harm a fetus before a turkey sandwhich will.
Im latina and i eat many things im not supposed to. During mt first pregnancy i ate sandwiches, sea food, oysters, mex cheese and my daughter is totally fine. Im having another baby and i do it too. I think you can eat what u want but moderately not exessive. Idk about smoking but thats your decision. Good luck with that friend of yours...
Cutting back to three a day is awesome!! Keep up the good work :) . Now its time to go down to just two a day :D
That is good! They say it's better to slowly cut down too. So it's not so hard on you and baby!
I stopped smoking a pack a day tho!! I smoke three a day I proud of my self for at least that I know some friends that smoke two packs a day just like they did before! But yeah I was just ranting! Had to get it out before I freaked out! Lol
I eat lunch meat too! Not sushi though...bleh! My first pregnancy all I ate were sandwiches...sooo delish. I always think that our mothers didn't have all these rules when they were pregnant with us and babies come out now with more problems than ever so sometimes people can actually be TOO careful!
I don't want to sound like I'm putting you down but I think a pregnant woman smoking is gross. It's just how I think....sorry :( I know it's hard to quit. Actually I think smoking in general is gross...I can't stand it, so seeing a pregnant woman smoking is like 10 times worse to me.
