Pregnant and yet smoking

[carolchan79]

Is there anyone out there who is pregnant and yet smoking? Have you thought of quitting and how to success?

[Ting]

i dun smoke.
but i think, the key to succeed to quit smoking when u r pregnant is to think of your baby.
if u want your baby to be healthy n all, just QUIT.
it's a strong motivation.

Ya. I also take this chance to ask my husband to quit smoking.

This is a good time for you to quit smoking. Always think for your baby first. It will be a good motivation factor to quit smoking.
No more excuses on delaying to quit. Do it now.

Yes, smoking is not good for human,
and our local government are preparing to make an law of a fine of hk1500,if offenders take smoking at the public estate zone, which is not allowed for smoking.Maybe be effective at next year.

i was smoking before i was pregnant & when im pregnant, i totally stopped smoking for the sake of my baby.

I cannot bear to harm my baby so just try to stop smoking as soon as possible. It will benefit you & your baby =)

yup. was smoking 1 pack / 2 days. the minute i tested preggy positive, completely stopped.

was hard first few days but after that i don't even think about it.

i can never forgive myself if anything happens to my bb - his time in the womb is incredibly important & it is our responsibilities as parents to ensure we give our kids the best possible start to life.


but now stopped bf already liao so back to my beloved sticks!

Totally agreed with you. Was a smoker before pregnant but stopped totally once pregnant even after that, just dun have the urge to smoke got sick of the smell.

Just imagine u inhale those tobacco and your baby also inhale it in too......it is bad for adult's lung, baby lagi worst.....

I have a friend who is a very heavy smoker. she smokes marl red pkt. She is also heavy coffee drinker. She still carry on with it throughout her pregnancy. Asked her why, she said not able to quit....told her that it will surely effect the development of the baby brain and lung and so on......but she just simply dun care. I find that she is so selfish and i feel kind of sad for the unborn baby.

After that, she give birth to a normal baby gal.....she brag and said 'the baby is find le' .....

Well, tha baby might not have anything wrong now, but in future??? As for me, i know it will surely somehow effect the health of the child be it now or future......

so please quit smoking for the sake of your beloved baby......

yup,I know of a gal who is in a relationship to my DH friend, who continue to smoke(alot) and drink (alot) like she is not pregnent, she give birth successfully in Dec 06 but her son died in Feb 07, the report says the cause was something to do with lungs, . . .

anyway, she wont care de la, she got so many children with diff guys, crime cases, on and off jail... 乱七八槽 . . .

so if u really care, you should try all means to quit it.

For my case, I quit once I was preggy cos the tobacco smell irritates me suddenly, hate that smell, so from then on till now, non-smoker liao. =)
Maybe u can try to take hacks (black) one whenevery u have craving for cig. . . that works for my dad, hope u can do it too. =)

1st pregnancy I stopped after 3months and resume smoking after I give birth .
2nd pregnancy I stopped after a few weeks upon learning my pregnancy . Cut down to 1 stick a day until completely tobacco free .
Feel very guilty as well , for the sake of baby health .
And my dunno why for both pregnancy i can't finish smoking 1 whole stick i feel like vomitting and can't stand the taste as well .
But my mouth really very gao wei lo , must keep chewing sweet or tidbits .
