Did you find it hard to quit smoking when you found out you were pregnant?
When I didn't realise I was pregnant and had fags I'd puke and when I knew I instantly linked the two things together...which makes sense.
So along with morning sickness or just general pregnancy queasiness and knowing you've a precious jewel growing inside of you, yes its addictive, I know because I've been fighting it on and off for 5 years now (started at 13), but did any girls on here still find it really hard, or are finding it hard?
And was/is your family or midwife supportive in this case?
Just I know some girls just don't get the help or support they need, etc. x
that was my main reason for me to take a pregnancy test.. because i couldn't even smoke half a fag without throwing up or nearly throwing up i knew something wasnt right! but when i was 12 weeks it seemed to be fine

i've also been smoking on and off for 4/5 years, and to be honest im not going to lie i haven't been able to stop smoking and im 31 weeks into pregnancy and had no help/support/advice from anyone to quit, i tried nicotine patches, gum and the inhalor thing but they just made me feel sick and didn't work the slightest.
Luckily, i managed to cut down to 5 - 6 per day when i was smoking 30 per day, and im still trying my hardest to cut it down even further but seems no such luck

@JLFx3 that was one main reason I started thinking maybe I was pregnant because I had never puked after a fag before. Its good you've been able to cut down though.

my boyfriend just thought that i could of had some dodgy fags and wouldn't belive me at first when i told him i thought i was pregnant just because fags made me sick haha.
yeah im proud that i've been able to cut down but still get judgemental people that still bitch at me saying i dont care about my girl even tho its very hard to quit! xx
