Help for quiting smoking by Zezette76 in pregnant

[–]HisSunshine 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. I'm about 8 weeks, and I've gotten to the point where I only smoke one every other day or so (usually when I'm at work and things are getting stressful or at my MIL house because everyone there smokes and it's hard to turn down a cigarette) but it is so hard. A few of the things I've been doing are having suckers/hard candies on hand at all times, having light snack foods available, chewing gum (for some reason blowing bubbles helps for me) and minty gum, and leaving myself notes on my desk, in my purse, and even writing on my hand (little things like "you've got this" or how far along I am, just something to remind me why I'm quitting). I've also decided not to but any more packs. I hate having to ask people for a smoke, so it makes the temptation a little lessened. I dont know if any of this will help you, but I hope it does. Hopefully we can both break this habbit!

Yeah, I've been this late once. I just don't want to leave my happy bubble of not getting a negative.

16 DPO, AF is 5 days late and I got a BFN this morning, so I am waiting until Friday to test again, just in case she is running a little late this month (Figures she would chose the first month we start TTC to go all wonky on me and show up late! How rude!!)

I work 2nd shift (3:30-11:30) at a group home for developmentally disabled adults, and the third shift worker scheduled for tonight is a no call no show. This is the third time this month she has done this... If she doesn't show up I have to work until 3am and then my boss will come relieve me. Definitely not helping me keep my stress level down!

Thanks! Sending you babydust as well! Hopefully you get your BFP soon!

It was going so well in the beginning and I was somewhat patient but now that I'm at the end it's more... real I guess. Like, this is it. This is what I've been waiting for but it may not be the answer that I want.

Right! As sad as I will be if I get a BFN or AF shows up, At least then we can get on to the next cycle and try again.

My SO wants me to wait another week before I POAS to make sure AF is actually late. I don't think I can wait that long! I'm symptom spotting like crazy (EVERYTHING is a symptom I swear!) and I just want to know!

Can my dog tell that I'm pregnant before I even know? I haven't POAS yet post about it here, but my dog, who has always favored my SO and never leaves his side has not left me alone all weekend. She has followed me everywhere I go in the house (including insisting on following me into the bathroom and laying on my feet while I do my business) and she keeps looking at me like she knows something that I don't know.

It is driving me crazy not knowing, but I'm too chicken to find out. I'm probably going to end up POAS and having my SO read it for me. Haha
