Smokers?

Anyone a smoker before their pregnancy? If so how did you quit? How long did it take? And how are you coping with cravings? I quit completely four days after I got a positive at home pregnancy test. That day I started to cut down and within four days I was no longer smoking. I've been very moody I think mostly because of the lack of smoking and also very hungry. Not looking to be judge just looking to hear from other people.

  • Right before I found out the smell of cigarettes was starting to make me sick, I think that tipped me off. It's been really easy for me since it makes me sick. I know it's a hard habit to kick, but you can do it!

  • I had been using an electronic cigarette for a year or so. The day I got my BFP, I quit using it. I did the same with DS one. I smoked real cigarettes until the day I got my BFP. I have a hard time quiting any other time. For me, when its just my body, I

  • Wow, everyone seems to be doing better than I am.  It took me two weeks to slowly taper down to no cigarettes, which was yesterday.  I've replaced it with disposable e-cigarettes and I'm going to try to cut that out completely within the next tw
  • I smoked a pack a day for 17 years. I quit 10 months prior to our plan to conceive ... It was all part of the Mayer plan. Hardest hung I've ever done took champix for 15 weeks to keep my quit. Gained 50 lbs but still best thing I've ever done
