Hi all I am 10+5 with my first and today I become a non smoker. I am on the Nicorette inhalator and gum as prescribed by my midwife health advisor. I have so far gone 3 hours without a cigarette. Not having my "breakfast" cigarette felt weird but I am doing this for mine and my baby's health. Wish me luck I think I'm going to need it!

Good luck ladies. I couldn't give up during either of my pregnancies (I know, selfish cow) but have since and really don't know why I ever smoked to begin with.
Stick with it, you won't regret it x

I am 17 weeks and have quit. several times. this time for good! definately for the rest of this pg anyway! I have had a really stressful time (single mum, split with babys dad) and I have found it really hard, although when pg with my DD I quit straight away no problemo!

Anyway, just wanted to say well done to you both, stay positive, you CAN do it. If I can, anyone can! I would also recommend reading Allen Carr Easy way to stop smoking. I found it very helpful (but had patches too)

Congrats Donkin - I actually quit 2 weeks before I found out I was preggers (now 10 weeks). I quit cold turkey but once or twice a week I'd sneak a smoke - just one! Last week when I tried, I got really sick and nauseous, so I guess that's a good thing!
