i slipped up. but i am not giving up. i am back.

i managed to quit for a few weeks, and then i started again. i was stressed out and thought a cigarette would be the solution before i new it i was hooked again.

However now i have a reason to quit more than ever before. i am 11 and a half weeks pregnant.

i have put of quitting again too long, i was fooled by all these myths that the stress of trying to quit would cause a miscarriage, well actually continuing to smoke will. also things like if i cut down it will be okay. it did the research, these are myths that do more harm to pregnant women than good.

I am quitting cold turkey, and yes it is safe to do so while pregnant.

i know it wont be easy, but i am willing to do this for my child.

to give my child the best start to life and to turn my own health around.

Thank you all for the support.
