I quit using regular gum. Everytime I wanted a cig I substituted with gum. It took me a week since I cracked a few time probably had 3 cigs that week (used to smoke 10 a day) but then I threw them out and havnt had one since. Its doable. My thing was I liked smoking and was scared to quit. You can do it!! I was at the point where after a trigger like driving or eating a meal I would reach for gum without even thinking! Now I don't rely on gum anymore. Just think everytime you smoke you are cutting of oxygen in your bloodstream to your baby
Someone recommended the e cig but i did research and what makes the vapor is anti freeze! But it might help you cut down. Best of luck mah
I smoked with my first pregnancy, wanted to quit but couldnt, I cut back a lot. It can be very hard to do. This time I did quit completley, it made me sick to my stomach. sometimes quitting cold turkey can put the baby in distress, I found it easiest to get an electric cigarette that you put the liquid into. I got one liquid with nicotine and one without and switched from one to the other slowly until I quit using it completely.
Im the same! I need the hand to mouth motion. I quit cold turkey a week before I conceived actually all just coincidence. Buuuut I used water as a substitute. I wanted to get healthy and stay in shape so every time I thought I needed that motion I would unscrew my water bottle sit down in front of the tv and take small sips. I find myself wanting thag familiar movement from time to time and the same thing works still. Put something to eat or drink in my hand and im good.
In order for me to quit I just stopped cold turkey haven't smoked a cig since July 24th
I believe the hand to mouth is probably my issue because i dont want them but i feel pike i have to have it. I dnt even like the feeling i get snpking then anymore
Lollipops!
My friend quit smoking that way. Every time she wanted a cig, she put a lollipop in her mouth. For her it was the hand to mouth movement which was hard to break.
Your dr will prescribe you something for it if you let him or her know
Me and Hubby were daily smokers green and stoggies and quit cold turkey its hard but possible!
