I can't wait to smoke another cigarette...?

Back in August I quit smoking cigarettes. It was very easy for me to quit because they made me sick... because I am pregnant. I found out I was pregnant in June and stopped smoking as much. The more I got pregnant the more they started to taste and smell gross. My last cigarette I had to stop myself from puking in the back seat of my husbands friends car. At first it was a relief not to smoke but as time went on I began to dream about them. I crave them sometimes and Ive almost picked the habit back up. I did, however, promise myself that if I did start again I would wait until after my baby was born.I have 2 months left and I crave them more and more everyday. I think its because I have no way to relieve stress. I've tried walking and writing but nothing works. I used to drink a lot before I got pregnant... it was pretty bad actually. Me getting pregnant and having to stay sober was actually a very good thing. I just turned 19 on the 7th of December. I drank every weekend until I graduated then it was every day. 2 weeks after graduation I found out I was pregnant. Is there anything I can do to stop myself from going back? I don't want to but with my husband and every member of my family and even my closest friend smoking all the time around me I can not wait to taste them again. Its very hard but I got off so easy with quitting I don't want to waste it. Sophie has done so much to help me I don't want to go back.

    It's been 6 years for me. Don't miss it one bit. Hate being around it and hate the smell. I just visioned myself in the hospital fighting for my life with my family watching. I certainly did not want that to happen. Good luck to you.

    Well if you're family are smoking around you when you're pregnant they're obviously very selfish and careless. Don't hurt your baby just because you crave a cigarette.
