As soon as I found out I was pregnant, I vowed to give up smoking, but I still have a puff of my OH fag occassionally when I feel abit peed off. Is this harming my baby?
Smoking in any shape or form is not good for you... but I kinda did the same... well I lit my hubbys ciggie and then would pass it to him.... and I got annoyed at myself for doing it. I have stopped all together now and it has been a struggle but I would try and stick to stopping if I were you.
When I was preg I used to buy some grapes and freeze them and whenever I fancied a ciggie I would suck on the frozen grape... got rid of craving and I wasn't stuffing my face with sweets instead!
No one knows for sure how damaging tobacco/nicotine is on a child until the damage is done.
But, is it better for your unborn child's development and health that you don't have the odd puff of a cigarette?
The answer would have to be yes.
Be strong, you can do it
You've already come this far, as you said its only the odd puff so compared to fully giving up, thats got to be easy!
(keep telling yourself that! )
It's certainly not good for the baby, I personally don't think it is worth the risk. Keep trying, you're doing really well apart from this, I know how hard it is
Since I put that last post on I haven't touched a fag!!! And I'm finding the smell on my husbands clothes is making me gag, its wierd, but im not even craving!!! Praise me lol!!!
