I think that people should tell their female friend or relative that smoking, drinking, marijuana use, and etc. is bad for their baby's health. And they should recommend them to seek counseling or rehab. If the female is insubordinate or won't listen and try to do better, then they should not keep trying to help her. You cannot help someone who doesn't help themself. They also should mind their business because it's the woman's child not theirs. She's the one who will have to face the consequences, hopefully not them. Same goes with abortions and discipline. If a woman chooses not to have her child and chooses to spank her child, it's her business and not the government's. Now I'm not saying I'm pro murdering an unborn or child abuse.
Oh Tyra,the young mother with addictions that you offered a car waiting to take her to rehab,and she declined.I wanted to speak with her so badly and share my story,which is a long one,that is full of regret for the (lost years)with my children that I can never get back. I managed 12 years ago to put my life back together and have made what I belive,and my family belives to be a HUGE comeback with so many positive things I have accomplished since I decided to be well,clean and sober. After hitting my rock bottom which was ugly. I still can't get back those lost years with my children no matter how much I accomplish now. She is breaking my heart and she needs your help and to hear my whole long story.
i jus watched this episode for the second time n at first i was up set by it but now i have different emotions about it. i first saw this show last year when it 1st aired n now i am 7 monthes pregnant and watched it again today. i was a smoker and was smoking up until my 3rd month. i still have craving for cigerettes but i have to talk myself out of it because it wld be so easy to get one but i know its wrong but in the same breath i know and understand where those women are comin frm now it is extremely hard to stop smoking but its easier when u hve family n friends there for suport but i cnt help the cravings i have not had a cig n about 4 n half mons. i belive that if u love your unborn child and wat effects the cigs n drugs will hve on him/her you will hve the strength to stop its not easy for me but ive made it this long without 1 i can make it longer for my daughters sake.
I AM SO IRATE WATCHING THIS SHOW!!!! The two women stating it's so HARD to quit smoking....yes, it is EXTREMELY difficult to quit, but it is SACRIFICE you have to make FOR YOUR CHILD. As a good parent, you have to make a conscious choice everyday to do what is BEST for your children, and those precious 36-40 weeks that you carry your child are the ONLY TIME in their LIVES that you can directly impact their physical formation and well-being. STOP BEING SELFISH! STOP THINKING ABOUT YOUR CRAVINGS AND URGES....do something that is BEST FOR YOUR CHILD....QUIT! Excuses are monuments that build bridges to NOWHERE. Be a strong, independent parent....NO EXCUSES....STOP NOW! I have done it TWICE COLD TURKEY....there is no excuse for ignorance.
Tyra these females on this show have no excuse and I believe that there really is no emotions to what they are doing. These are grwon women that have no right to make excuses. I am 19 yrs old and been clean since I found out i've been pregnant. Before pregnancy I smoked marijuana, cigerettes and drunk liquor and often. Even though it may not be easy, when you realize that you are carrying your unborn and a human being, you kno what you are doing. I'm just sitting here watching them and getting furious. No excuse. Thanks for listening Tyra.
Tyra i am watching your show now and i think that the two ladys need to relize that they are hurting there child. Me and my soon to be husben just lost are baby and i dont smoke we were told that they dont have a reason why this happen because i had a health ane normal pregnency. They need to see that what they have is a gift and stop hurting there unborn child.
Hey Tyra, First of all I love your show. You have brought so much inspiration to so many women, young and old. And I thank you for that. I was only able to catch a couple min of this show on my lunch break. But have very strong feelings about this subject. I am about to be 23 and I have been married for a year and a half. My husband and I are expecting our first child. But I am only 5wks in and this is my 3rd time being pregnant. I have had 3 miscarriages. I admit I used to smoke when I was a teenager so i can understand the addiction, but i haven't in about 3 years. I quit cold turkey and was only able to do so with God's help. Everytime i got a craving i would pray until it went away . I never smoked when I was pregnant! But for some reason I still have not had a baby. We are praying this time will work out. I have always wanted to be a mother. Even when I was a little girl I would tell my mom I wanted to have 10 children when I grew up. It is so unfair that crack addicks and teenagers and mothers who don't want or care about their children can have them, but those of us who want them and are in the possition to do so can't. These women are selfish and inconsiserate. They are so self involved. I appreciate you addressing this issue. Thanks again tyra!
tyra im watching you show right now and its really making me mad not at you but at those two soon to be moms cause i am 7 months pregnant right now and i use to smoke but as soon as i found out that i was pregnant i stopped just like that cause i was thinking about my health and my baby's and its really not that hard as ppl say cause all you have to do is not think about yourself think about your baby and with them two saying that its hard they are wrong they just dont want too thats all it is and they are being selfish!!!! and about the whole weight gain yeah you do gian weight but you can also lose it too all you have to do is exercise and actually listen to the dr's cause throught my pregnancy i've only gained 3 pounds and its not that im not eating its because i exercise and take care of my self and my baby is very healthy all that is going on is that im losing my weight and gaining hers but those women have some serious issues and need some serious help
I am watching yoru show & I think that you guys need to really take a ste back! This lady is pregnant & coming on national tv admitting she has a problem & you guys are attacking her like crazy! Shes pregnant & emotional & I think thats rude to have someone on your show to just downgrade them! Giving someone facts & opinions is one thing but the lady in the audience that called her a murderer & you agreed, that was ridiculous! Just because she smokes doesnt make her a horriable mother, atleast she is honest & there to show it, I have never been so discusted by your show in my life!
TYRA,iM WATCHING UR SHOW ON PREGNANCY/SMOKING AND ITS GETTING ME REALLY MAD... IM 16 AND I WAS PREGNANT AND I LOST MY BABY AND I DIDNT SMOKE OR ANTHING I DONT THINK ITS REALLY FAR THAT THESE GIRLS ARE SMOKING AND GET BABY. I MEAN I KNOW ITS HARD TO QUIT BUT THOSES LADYS ARE BEING SELFISH. HOPEFULLY THEY GET HELP
smoking never stopped me from caring and loving my child, thats where you all are wrong. granted, there are women out there who just dont care, but how dare you guys lump us all into one pile. i dont smoke because im afraid of gaining weight, i smoke because i want to. im a better mother than a lot of women i know who dont smoke, they just dont take care of their kids, so how can someone tell me im a bad mom for smoking when at least my kids are healthy and taken care of. get a life, not smoking doesnt make u better than anyone else, and it doesnt make you care more about your baby than anyone else.
its not just about smoking its about all the addictions out there... Im pregnant with my 3rd i have never smoked, drank, or done any kind of drugs that my doctor didnt tell me to just because im so afraid of what would happen to my baby it cant help that it was put in your body you chose that no body did it for you... another thing that ticked me off was the women who didnt want to eat and gain weight while she was pregnant... hello your goin gain weight you have another child growing in you... i dont like the weight either but by not eating thats basically killing your child... dont look at as getting fat look at as your body is changing for something beautiful that you have been blessed with cause there are so many people out there that cant have kids and would love to have that baby weight... and if your that worried about it go work out you can still walk and keep calories off that way and even relive stress... they even have work out programs built for women who are pregnant... i just think all of it is ridiculous because you have another human being in you that you have to and need to take care of...
Regarding the June 19 program on "Pregnancy and Smoking," no mention was made of the fact that vitamin deficiency is often a factor in addictions, particularly Vitamin B deficiency. Drug and alcohol treatment programs that have incorporated diet and nutrition counseling along with vitamin supplementation have had high rates of success in curing addictions and greatly reducing incidents of recidivism. Please pass this on to your viewers. Poor diet, especially a high intake of sugar and carbohydrates, contribute to vitamin deficiency and increased addictions.
being healthy has nothing to do with it... why should we be made to feel guilty about our ability to have beautiful healthy children? i smoke, and its my choice. i love my kids, and i want another, but i continue to smoke because its my choice. you dont have to be in prime health... your such a hipacrit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how DARE anyone have anything to say about smoking while your pregnant.. of all people.. Tyra. You've never had a child. No one is a perfect mother, and it doesnt make us bad people to smoke while being pregnant. I smoke a pack a day and I have three beautiful little girls with NO HEALTH PROBLEMS. This is the most insulting show I have ever seen. You aren't trying to help someone whos smoking.. you are ATTACKING her. I cannot believe this. Everyone in the audience who shakes their head at these women... you all need to take a step back and realize that you arent perfect. Its not ok, but its an addiction and a choice. How can you come at a pregnant woman for smoking?! When shes right.. there are women out there who are doing drugs and what not, and yet you pick on her for a cigarette. Your a joke. Until you have a child, don't attack someone on something you know nothing about.
