Ecigs

So I'm 73 and trying my hardest to quit smoking. It's been harder with this pregnancy than my first two. My doctor said she didn't want me to quit cold turkey but to wean myself off. I went from 1/2 a pack a day to about 4 a day. But it's that last four a day I'm having a hard time kicking. I got an e cig and do one or two puffs off of that when I'm having a craving. Hopefully I can slowly wean myself off nicotine. Anyone else use the e cigs? Is it as harmful as cigs are. Ugh quitting is so hard this time around

  • I'm at the same stage you are...with my pregnancy & with the cigs.  My OB has assured me that I'm not killing my baby and to just do my best without stressing myself out.  He said the biggest concern with nicotine is low birth weight & t
  • I was using one when I found out. I quit using it that day. I have smoked on and off since I was 16. I know how hard it is to quit since I haven't been greatly successful myself.
    I have found that it is much easier when I am pregnant. I quit cigare
