Smoking

I'm a smoker and now I'm trying to quit since I'm 15 weeks pregnant. Do you think I need to quit smoking or not? Any experienced moms who smokes during their pregnancy days?

What did your doctor say? Smoker din ako, and nung nagbuntis ako sa pangalawa ko sumali ako sa FB group for people trying to quit, may nabasa akong isang comment na chain smoker siya, sa sobrang lakas niya mag smoke the moment na nagtry siya magquit grabe yung withdrawal symptoms niya kaya ang advise ng doctor sa kaniya ay wag mag stop pero bawasan and nicotine replacement therapy. I did stop sa dalawang pregnancies ko. Sa panganay ko malakas ako magsmoke, my OB recommended nicotine gum to help me quit gradually. 6 or 7 months pregnant (can't remember pero malaki na tiyan ko nun, and pinagtitinginan na ko ng mga tao kapag bumibili ako ng yosi) na ko nung nakapag stop. Baby came out healthy, she's now a 2-year old ball of energy. Sa pangalawa ko cold turkey lang nung 3 months along na ko, he's 4 months old now, a healthy and happy baby. Personally, I think you should quit. Don't take your chances. But ask your doctor pa din.
