1262435 tn?1270311859 I have seen many doctors, and they all advice to syop smoking but NO ONE is realy convincing in their advice, no real and professional explanation to ordinary people. We see warnings on cigarette packs with no scientific and convincing explanations. I urge any one with such answers to post them here to make it more convincing to reluctant smokers.
Avatar f tn I tried everything to quit smoking and finally did at 22 weeks. im now 26w3d and its so nice to say i quit. I tried everything to quit and i guess after my ultrasound it hit me that i really needed to try n quit once n fer all not just fer a day or two. I ended up quiting cold turkey and asked for my husbands help. He smokes. I wouldnt have any lighters cigs or money to buy em around the house and picked up a new habit. Going on walks....im here fer u if u need someone to talk to. Thatll help.
Avatar n tn I desperately need some advice about how to go about kicking tobacco. I have been smoking for almost ten years and I made a choice recently to quit. I am ready, however, I am thinking about trying bupropian as an aide. I do not know anyone who has used this product and I am really nervous about trying it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. This is my only attempt at quitting and I do not wish to fail.
Avatar f tn I think your doctor is a smoker. Forget that advice, quit now. At 6 w 4 d the baby is putting on a million cells a day. You don't want even one of those cells to be affected by your smoking! Good luck, of course it is easier said than done. But I would not trust that doctor's advice after this.
2207540 tn?1338956718 I might be pregnant so I need to quit smoking... Any advice on how to make quitting easier ??
Avatar f tn m at33 weeks aand still struggling to quit and only managed so far to cut back. Doctor tells me keep trying if I can manage to quit this time it may be my ticket to permanently quitting. But I'm afraid to quit completely now this far in my pregnancy because some doctors do say further you are more dangerous it can be to quit because baby would suffer the withdrawal as well. The sooner and faster you quit completely the better. Just keep your mouth busy with gum, lollipops or whatever.

784382 tn?1376931040 s anything wrong with smoking pot, but you still have the act of inhaling something in your lungs everyday which makes it hard to stay quit with cigs. I was a pot smoker too. Quit almost 3mos ago. Smoking pot led me to fail my quit each and every time.

Avatar f tn So, I need advice. I just found out I'm pregnant and it wasn't exactly planned. I'm beyond excited and grateful though... however, I smoke. The plan was to quit before we tried to have a baby. I have significantly reduced what I smoke but I'm scared that quitting cold turkey will put my body into shock. Please any advice to help me quit. Please... only advice. I can't handle judgement or mean comments right now. It's been a rough few days... thanks in advice.

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 So when I found out I was pregnant my fiance and I quit smoking. I asked him to quit with me because it's really hard smelling it when I can't have it. So I noticed the other night his breath smelled like smoke and I asked him about it. He swore on our daughter's life that he didn't smoke and went and brushed his teeth. Now I've noticed every day after work he rushes to the bathroom and puts on deoderant and cologne and brushes his teeth.
Avatar f tn t seem to kick the habbit of smoking. It sounds bad, and I feel terrible and guilty as it is. I need help with how to quit. I tried cold turkey And I was a wreck, which stress is also very bad for the baby. I have cut down, and some days I smoke more than others. But I can't officially stop. I just want a healthy baby, and to kick this nasty habbit.
Avatar f tn I quit smoking June 2012 after smoking for many years. Congrats on your decision to quit. I wouldn't necessarily call smoking a "crutch" since you were doing it while using. I would face it independently from your opioid use. Having said that...maybe waiting a tad bit longer to where you have some more clean time under your belt so its easier to handle. Just an idea...I waited until I had been clean for 2 years 4 months before I quit smoking. You dont want to overwhelm yourself....
Avatar f tn I smoked a pack about every 2-3 days and kept telling myself i would cut a couple out everyday until i quit completely but it didnt work for me so i just quit cold turkey. The best advice i have for u is carry mint or gum and when u crave a cig have a mint! They worked for me for the 1st few days of cravings!And try to avoid ppl who smoke for a few days, after a few wks the smell actually turns nasty.
Avatar f tn Im a smoker as well and when I quit cold turkey I ended up going to the ER because I was bleeding some and the doctor told me it was due to shock... My advice is to cut back slowly until you quit.
Avatar f tn I thought when I had my first ultra sound it would give me the strength to quit and I am failing miserably. Does anyone have any advice on what to do? How to quit?....
Avatar f tn I quit as soon as I figure out at around 5 weeks, and was also also pack to a pack and a half a day smoker I don't think the withdrawals on your body will cause you to miscarry this early on, but then again I'm not a doctor. I think the gradual stopping is for mothers who figure out when they are further along with their pregnancies and the baby has time have addiction to the nicotine itself, which would cause the baby to withdrawal. Again, I am not 100% certain but I hope this helps.
Avatar f tn I quit with both of my pregnancies but to me it was always easy to do it. If it stresses u to much the doctor will not advice to quit cold turkey but cut back a little every day until quit completely. I know its hard but well worth it. Good luck.
Avatar f tn I quit smoking ASA I fell pregnant too I'm 30 weeks now and still every now and then when I've done everything and before I sit down to relax I really feel like one...
