I am 5 weeks pregnant and i find it very hard to quit smoking, i have cut down from 12mg to 2mg. I feel so depressed and keep crying because i had a miscarriage 2months ago and i'm afraid that i will have another miscarriage if i don't quit smoking. Please can someone tell me what to do to quit smoking?? I don't want to take any nicotine as that doesn't help me either. Would you ladies who has experience the same thing as me tell me what you had done to stop it.

im realy bad for smoking i put my patch on today after my last fag this morning. aks your gp to put you intouch with a midwife who deals with smoking and pregnancy (there sould be one in your area) she can give you some tips on trying to stop ive had half a cig at lunch. just got to have the will power to do it. you dont need cigs you just want them. take the want away and change the things you do daily when smoking and do something else instead good luck x

I know what you going through, b/c I had the same situation: smoking all the time, first miscarriage, second.... third..... Close youe eyes and ask your heart: what is more important to you: baby or smoking. I asked myself and I stoped to smoke,.... four years ago and I have healthy daughter 2 years old. Good Luck!
