Avatar f tn s so dangerous and harmful to my precious baby, everytime I craved a cigarette I looked up the danger of dangers of smoking whilst pregnant on the internet, the things that really made me not light up were that every cigarette smoked made my babys heart beat really fast, it said online that I might aswell just squeeze my babys umbilical cord for a while, resulting in my baby not having enough oxygen and struggling :( I quit cold turkey and haven't looked back, I'm now 37 weeks and it'
Avatar f tn I am on holiday and my friend is smoking e cigarettes. Yesterday I came back to our room early to find the e cigarette making a strange noice so I put it on the balcony in doing so some fluid leaked on my hand. I have washed and washed my hands but still worried can any one help! 15 weeks pregnant.
Avatar f tn I disagree with the comment that we should accept it and not try to educate people about the dangers of smoking while pregnant. There are a lot of really young moms on here and notall do know all the risks with smoking.

Avatar f tn Why risk something that has been scientifically proven to affect an unborn fetus? Science was a whole lot different for our parent's generation, scientist know so much more about the dangers of smoking than before. I just couldn't see myself taking chances like that knowing as many negative stories about it.
Avatar f tn I still continued to smoke for a couple of days, but only a couple of puffs from my husbands cigarette 2-3 times a day, then I looked online about the effects off smoking whilst pregnant and quit straight away! There are times when I would like a cigarette but I care for my unborn baby a million times more than a dirty fag! Honestly the best thing you can do is quit, every time you smoke your babies tiny heartbeat has to beat extremely fast as it struggles for oxygen!
Avatar f tn My parents do and their house reeks of it, my husband has asthma and when I'm over there just to catch a bus to my job she starts them up without reguarding what it does to me and our baby inside, she knows I'm pregnant Ahd forgets obviously, I don't wanna be rude but God the house smells horrible, I never noticed till my husband married Me and pulled me out of there, he says don't say anything its their house, but our house we don't allow any cigarette smoking period.
Avatar f tn I use to smoke 2 packs a day for a LOONG time! I went to the cigarette shop and bought one of the cheap 30$ vapor cigarette (e-cigarette) it didn't work. So I went back and the guy told me if I wanted to quit to buy a good e-cigarette. So I spent 150$ on and e-cigarette I got the lowest level of nicotine .2mg and within 3 months I had quit all together. It worked for me. I do have to say you do have to spend a little money to get the good stuff but it makes a world of a difference.
Avatar f tn Its so hard to stop smoking I really want a cigarette but I know its bad for my baby and advice? Somebody told me you can smoke at least two a day is that true?
Avatar f tn I agree with Paxiled, if smoking a cigarette helps, then carry on. No harm in that. Doctor Goddess certainly has some way out views. I wonder if she has ever had depression. I have taken anti depressants, and I am now not taking any. They did not blunt me or give me a chemical labotomy, they helped me through the darkness of depression. It is 8 months since I came off anti depressants, and I still get low at times. Whatever helps us we should take.
Avatar f tn Risk factors for stroke include advanced age, hypertension (high blood pressure), previous stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), diabetes, high cholesterol, cigarette smoking, atrial fibrillation, the contraceptive pill, migraine with aura, and thrombophilia (a tendency to thrombosis), patent foramen ovale and several rarer disorders. High blood pressure is the most important modifiable risk factor of stroke.

Avatar f tn Iam currently 29 weeks, And today fighting with babies dad I broke down an smoked a cigarette. I will not smoke again during my pregnancy. But I am afraid of that one hurting my baby. Any mothers to be who are as far as me an smokes or still struggling to quit. Is ur baby still healthy?? Will that one effect my baby??
Avatar f tn Everybody I know that quit cold turkey ended going back to smoking. Cigarette smoking is the same as drug addiction. First you have to WANT to quit with all your heart. The electrinic cigarettes will still give you the nicotine your body craves, but without the smoke and other toxic chemicals. You can get the filters at any nicotine strength so you can cut down a little at a time. I started at 27mgs and each month I cut down to a lesser amount.
503422 tn?1218556941 My friend and I got really bored one day, and at that time, we were able to buy a pack , and went into the woods and stood there, smoking one cigarette after another. Ha, Ha, we probably turned greener than the grass. Yet , at that time frame in life, we were bored with nothing to do, and kept at it for about a week until we got hooked. You asked does it lead to other drugs? No, , not if they find a coping mechanism to overcome the feelings that need to be worked out.
Avatar f tn okay hear me out please no judgement....I am 17 weeks pregnant and I smoked a cigarette today. just one. i used to heavily smoke and quit when I found out I was pregnant. i can honestly say it was like my mind went elsewhere and i just forgot what i was doing and smoked. i am terrified that because of my selfishness and careless i just put my baby and risk and in danger. i DO NOT plan on smoking again.
Avatar f tn Well congrats to you...i know its hard to quit smoking especially if you have done it for years...to mean you are getting there seeing as how you have cut down so much...im sure soon you will quit...and good for you...dont worry about what he is saying...
Avatar f tn Stress on you is stress on baby I dunno if your boyfriend smokes or not but I was smoking almost a full pack a day til I got pregnant and I cut down to a half pack by myself but just couldn't kick it infact for some crazy reason I wanted to smoke more!! My midwife just urged me to cut down but to not stress!
Avatar f tn I smoked on cigarette today but that's the first cigarette I had since I got pregnant I mean I'm sometimes around my uncle who smokes everyday and I heard second hand smoke is worse so I was wondering was it harmful to my babygirl when I did smoke that cigarette?
Avatar f tn I was actually just reading the SIDS guidelines which now recommend you avoid smoking or exposing baby to cigarette smoke while pregnant and for the first year! I quit cold turkey 5yrs before starting my family but still thought that was interesting. Good luck for your quitting too!
Avatar f tn I just feel like not smoking that cigarette no matter how bad u want it is worth it! I have smoked for 12 years and was able to stop immediately with both pregnancies. Good luck!!
