I feel like a terrible person😭 Im currently 38 weeks and as soon as I found out I was pregnant I quit vaping however since 30 weeks the craving for it came back with vengeance😭 I spoke to my midwife and apparently it’s pretty common in the 3rd trimester for cravings like this to come back and I was doing really well fighting against it however at around 36 weeks I caved after quite a few tragic events happening in my life, problems with my work and just total stress and anxiety about life (I know this isn’t an excuse) and I told myself it was a one off but it hasn’t been and I feel terrible, iv stopped again but strugglingšŸ¤¦šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø im now going into total overdrive worrying about the damage iv done to my little one, I have GD and had regular growth scans so I know it’s definitely not going to effect his birth weight but I’m just worried about other things I could have done😢 has anyone else struggled with something like this?

Be kind to yourself OP.

you have battled an addiction - and it is an addiction (fellow vaper here, quit when I found out too but luckily for me no cravings, the thought of it makes me want to vom!) and you had a moment of weakness as all humans do.

I doubt any damage or harm has come to baby. You have done amazingly well. ā¤ļø
