Just to throw a spanner in the works, most Dr's recommend that you do NOT quit cold turkey if you have been a serious smoker and find out you are pregnant. I was told to gradually quit when I was pregnant, as if I had gone cold turkey it could have caused a miscarriage. I think like everything, everyone is different. I always found it very easy to quit whenever I liked (when I did smoke) however I have friends who I know will never be able to quit. Smoking is like any drug and it is extremely addictive as most of you would already know.

As I too don't really like the idea of smoking when pregnant (not that I will have to worry about that with TTC#2 coz its a thing of the past) I don't think its right to judge others as you can never know what its like for them. I think if we judged less and tried to help or support smoking mothers (to quit), they might find it easier to quit. IYWKIM.

I am an ex smoker, but I am NOT one of those types that Hates other smokers. If people choose to smoke thats their choice, so long as you respect the air that my daughter breathes then I really don't care.

I hope you understand where I am coming from I just thought I would give another perspective.
