Just put the patch on this morning and I am really hoping it works. I want to get pregnant so badly, but I KNOW I have to quit smoking first. I have smoked since I was 17 and I am now 26. I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to quit not only for my family and friends but for me. Any encouragement would be appreciated. :rolleyes:

oh hon what better reason to quit than to bring a new life into the world. most of quit because of health problems or just to get rid of an ugly habit. but to bring a baby into the world, ohhhh hang in there hon. i had quit for 3 days due to health reasons and for the same health reasons (severe fibromyalgia pain) i gave in to one yesterday. i was having pain so bad that i became weak and gave in to it. i wish i could say im quitting to have a baby. they are precious gifts arent they? will this be your first? try your hardest hon, and when you feel weak, think of that beautiful babys face, all nice and cuddly in a warm blankie, looking up at your face and smiling. no better image to have in your mind when you start losing hope and wanting to give in to just one. you can do it! yes you can! im so happy for you that you made this decision and the reason why you made it. Lots of positive strong energy being sent your way.

I quit 2 weeks ago cold turkey no patch no nothing you can do I quit because my 4 yr old has been asking me to he's my motivation being around for him in years to come to to watch him get married have kids of his own etc.
you can do it the first few days are hard but that's it than it's just like missing a friend who really just got you into trouble but was loads of fun to be with and your better off without.
Hang in there

Delia79,
WOOHOO! Hang in there. That is great and you just keep thinking how bad you want that baby and think of all the money you can save also. I smoked for 25 years and I started wearing the patches and using the Welbutrion also and I have been off of cigarettes for 14 days. I can breathe so much better now, and I have more energy and just feel better period. I just wish I had of laid them down years ago but I waited until every time I turn around I am in the doctors office with bronchitus and I got so tired of coughing and couldn't talk on the phone with out coughing and the worst part was I could not walk and breathe. That is not a good feeling at all. The Doctor told me if I didn't lay them down, I wouldn't be around in 5 years. My Family is more important to me than them cigarettes. If I can stop, I feel like any one can. Hang in the Girl! I am proud of you. You have made the first step.:)
