NEXT: Pregnancy Intervention


 
Im 6 months pregnant and I'm sitting here listening to this woman about smoking and I'm so disgusted.Before I got pregnant I smoked alot and the day I found out I had a little gift inside meI quit so that woman has no excuse.Woman like that need to have their babies taken from them.
 
I cannot believe the nerve of these ppl. Every babies life is soo soo precious and these people are being so selfish. I used to smoke almost a pack a day and as soon as i saw that positive on that pregnancy test that was it i quit cold turkey. I had just bought a new pack a couple hours before i tested and saw those two lines saying i was in fact pregnant and threw them in the garbage and havent touched one since. Just so selfish of these women who care more about their own wants other than their unborn child. It makes me sick!
 
I am pregnant now I am 7 weeks along. Ive smoked since i was 15 yrs old and now 21. Im quiting smoking step by step, people dont understand that you cant quit cold turkey. You have to quit on your own time. This bothers the hell out of me because everybody says you did this to yourself yes I know i did but people pushing me isnt going to help I have to do this on my own I know it wrong to smoke and pregnant I do understand this and Im quiting on my own time. If you havent gone through this then you will never know. I smoke because I get stressed out after I eat and people always putting their input in makes me want to smoke to take off the stress. Ill quit smoking and you all MUST understand that I know its wrong but dont PUSH ME i will do this on my own
 
I cannot believe these women. I have been trying to get pregnant for 2 years now. I have polycystic ovarian disease and have been taking fertility drugs for 4 months now. I was a smoker and decided to quit because I didn't want to find out I was pregnant and then try to quit. I had smoked for six years. I still can't get pregnant. I don't smoke, don't drink any alcohol, don't do drugs, I take a prenatal vitamin daily, and I eat healthy. Nothing burns me more than when I see a pregnant woman smoking a cigarette. These woman are taking advantage of God's greatest gift. It's like a slap in the face to me. They say it's about addiction. I understand addiction, but some things in life are more important. If you cannot take care of a child, DON'T GET PREGNANT! Birth control exists for a reason, and this is one of them. The next time you take a drag of a cigarette, a sip of a drink, or a hit of whatever drug you may take, think about your child. And if that's not enough, think about the other women who are going through the same thing I am. Don't be selfish. I see these women and think to myself, what did I ever do? Why can't I get pregnant? She's smoking at 8 months...how is that fair? I absolutely HATE women like that. You don't deserve to have a child.
 
I smoked during my first pregnancy and after my son's bout with asthma, I vowed not to do it again. During my second pregnancy, I was so freaking sick I just knew I was having a girl! The only way I could hold anything on my stomach was to take a toke. But, mind you, I didn't smoke with other people, neither did I smoke in excess. Just enough to get the "munchies" and slow down the regurgitation process. My baby came out fine, no asthma, and he was super smart. He potty-trained at 16 months! I just think that if you can stop, STOP! If you can't do it alone, get help. And whatever you do, 1)remember that the baby comes first and 2)its not WHAT you do, its HOW you do it!
 
on the lady who said she smoked since she was 14 years old and can't stop smoking now. i smoked with some of my pregnancy and i quit. i found it easier to stop smoking while i was pregnant then what it was while i was not. so for her to say that i find is bull crap and hse just doesn't want to stop.
