I smoked a lot
I cut back to half a pack in my first trimester and now i m down to having like one or 2 every 2 days
I m 24weeks now
Baby is healthy as she can be
Now working on quiting all the way
For someone its easer and for someone its hard
And i smoked more than a pack before pregnacy
So i m doing awesome

I quit with my 1st the day I found out I was pregnant 8 years ago. Now 15 weeks with baby #2 and I'm still smoking..  I was never a heavy smoker, 1/2 a pack a day or less really. For those women who like to pass judgement or give dirty looks, they need Jesus. Your baby will be fine just try and slowly cut back and set a date to quit! You can do it.

I quit when I found out we were expecting on the stick, and a week later at my first appointment learned I was two months along.

Although I myself couldn't imagine smoking one now because of the baby, I want one almost every day as I've gotten closer to my due date. Next weekend.

I don't know how anybody could physically light up a cigarette when pregnant knowing all the facts that we know about smoking. All the studys that have proven how bad it is. I couldn't live with myself!!!

I smoked until about 6 months with my first pregnancy. I cut back alot and was down to about 4 a day when I finally quit. They made me sick (nauseous) and smelled awful so it was easy for me to let go, that and the guilt and shame I felt. I am very grateful because I am still a non smoker 18months later and dont think ill start up ever again. My daughter was very healthy regardless. Not to say theres a "healthier" brand but maybe you can look into a natural, additive free cigarette if you're having trouble quiting, atleast you'll expose baby to less chemicals that way.

With this one, I quit right away when I found out I was pregnant, at about 4 weeks and a few days. With my first, I quit about 3 months in. She is healthy but I felt terribly guilty. Now that I am older, it wasn't even a question if I would quit with this one. It took way too long to get pregnant with this one to risk anything!
