I was a smoker for 15 years and stopped on 8th May 2011 with ease! Even having 3 miscarriages didn't send me running back to the fags!

Best of luck

I used the inhalator to help me stop this time. thankfully just before I conceived!

however, what has kept me of the fags this time is finding out what harm it does to the baby. Even one fag can do damage. When you smoke your placenta contracts, and that is what is keeping baby alive. So basically your poor wee baby is holding its breath the whole time you are enjoying a cig.

and if that dont work, think about this:
Statistics show that infant mortality—the death of the baby either at birth or through a miscarriage—is 50 percent higher when the mother smokes. That means nonsmokers experience half as many infant mortalities. Children of smokers are also 2½ times more likely to die of sudden infant death syndrome, or crib death. The good news is that if you stop smoking by the fourth month of pregnancy, you can significantly reduce these dangers.
