Should I be worried

I just smoked a menthol cigarette.  I heard they are better for the baby.  Should I be worried?

Nah, and hopefully your brilliance will be passed on to your baby.

I just quit smoking when I got my BFP, so I know how it can be hard.  I just wanted to pass along what my doc pass along.  1 cigarette is equal to 13 PACKS for the baby.  Dont' know how they figure it out but just think how small the baby is right now- and it makes it so hard for them to breath!  Try really hard to quit- it's only 9 months!  GL to you!

Who said anything about being around the baby while smoking.  I'm not planning on smoking after the baby is born.  I was just telling her- it's easier to set a goal for 9 months than say quit forever...hopefully after 9 months she won't want to smoke again.  My point is-don't do it pregnant.  If I do decide to have a smoke when I have a glass of wine after I give birth- I wont be around the baby.  Don't just assume things.

Such a classy troll.



Holy heck, we're pregnant again! Please stay here with us little Otter.

We have a heartbeat! 138 beats per minute and measuring right on track. Ultrasound 11/7/12 showed heartbeat in the 160s. Negative MaterniT21 results ... Found out at Anatomy Scan we're Team Blue!

Lost our first (EDD 07/23/12) after finding out at 12 weeks there was no longer a heartbeat.

Heard of third hand smoking.  You may not be smoking near the baby but its still harmful.

No disrespect- but I won't be near the baby - I'm talking when my parents babysit overnight or my in-laws.  They both live down the street- and I'm talking once in a blue moon having a cigarette.  This gal made this whole post up to get ppl arguing and telling her how bad she is.  And I know it's harmful for me- hopefully I won't smoke but for someone to quit- it's easier in my mind to just say I'm quitting BUT if I want one in the future- then maybe I will.  That's all.  I have never written a post calling ppl names or being rude- no matter what they say.  I wish you wouldn't judge me for maybe having a smoke again in my life.  I've quit- not a lot of ppl can do that.  I'm proud of myself.

I'm not a smoker myself so I don't know first hand how hard it is to quit, but my husband sure does.  You should be proud of yourself.

Trolls are fun because they bring out the REAL crazies. As seen here.

kt, thinking it's okay to have a cigarette every once in a while after you have a child, as a past addict, is incredibly immature. You quit and yes, that's a big achievement. Keep it that way.

terri, I love you for using the word nimrod.

I'm not judging you.  I'm just saying 3rd hand smoking is still harmful for your LO.  I'm glad to hear you quit and that you're going to avoid smoking near your LO if you do smoke again.  Quitting is difficult.   However its very easy to go back to a bad habit when you're around it again. Studies show it takes several tries to actually quit for good.  I also think that people can't say "I quit" if they do take it up again as once in awhile is still smoking.  Again not judging because you should be proud that you did quit.
