I smoked my entire pregnancy, up until about 34 weeks or maybe later. Cannabis of course, it helped with morning sickness and gave me an appetite. I'm 38 weeks today an everything's fine.

I'm 29w5days and when I went to the doctor last month i asked the risks of smoking marijuana while pregnant. The response I got was 'the only reason she can't say it's ok to do is because it's not legal.'

I was lucky and found out I was pregnant at a week and a half! I quit in 3 days, so I didn't get too stressed quitting all at once. I hated myself for every cigarette though. My former friend smoked all through her pregnancy and her daughter is a year old now and she's fine so far! Sugar free gum and mints helped me quit! Also, drink lots of water!

I smoked weed and cigarettes all day everyday before i knew i was pregnant. I found out i was expecting at 6 weeks and quit cold turkey. I had an amazing uncomplicated pregnancy and my daughter is now 4 months old and is in perfect health

I never smoked, but for some reason now that I'm pregnant the smell of it makes me crave it.

I smoked through my entire pregnancy with my son and he was born healthy, full term 39 weeks 4 days. I'm 37 weeks along with my baby girl and I have smoked this entire time with her as well. My obgyn is fully aware of my habit and my baby girl is doing just fine. Heart rate has been excellent and as of right now she's measuring to be about 6 pounds! My son was born 6 pounds 4 ounces. That's my experience, everyone has their own opinion, and everyone's body is different.

I smoked a pack in a day and a half, I found out that I was pregnant at 6weeks and quit cold turkey. I couldn't even stand the smell of a cigarette while I was pregnant, but I will admit there were times I got really stressed and wanted one and the first two weeks were horrible! But it was totally worth it for my baby girl.

I smoked and drank until I found out at 9 weeks and 3 days. I just quit cold turkey. And it didn't put no stress on me and baby. Everyone's body is different. I'm now 17 weeks and carrying a healthy baby with no problems and I don't feen for anything.

I smoked and drunk alchol until i found out at about 7 weeks. Everything was fine at my 13 week scan! Im on an electric cigarette now but trying to cut that down gradually! Im sure everything will be fine if youre worried. Think of those who smoke all through their pregnancy and take drugs through out. Just try take the right steps now you know and everything should be ok

My first two pregnancies i quit the day i found out i was pregnant both ended in a miscarriage. This time i quit at 10 weeks when i knew everything was okay. Quiting can cause a lot of stress on you and baby. Slow down at first and gradually quit. (: im now 35 weeks with healthy twins.
