Quitting smoking during pregnancy
Quitting is not easy. The cravings, the irritability, the powerful desire to smoke “last cigarette” are sometimes overwhelming. However, now that you’re pregnant, you probably realize the importance of saying goodbye to this habit. Although you tried before without success, this time you can achieve. Approximately 40 percent of smokers who try during pregnancy, get it (a success rate far higher than women who are not pregnant). Yet, many continue their habit, which increases the risk of having a premature birth, the baby is born with low birth weight or other complications arise, such as vaginal bleeding and spontaneous abortions. What differentiates it stop those who continue smoking? In general, pregnant women who stop smoking are not necessarily stronger or more intelligent. Nor does it mean they want more babies. The difference is simply that adopt better strategies to reach their goal. Each person is different and what to work for you, perhaps another will not fare so well, but there are several smoking cessation techniques that stand out for their effectiveness. BabyCenter offers you these five strategies to quit snuff.
Plan in advance
Quitting smoking is not as easy as making a ball with your last package and throw it away. Need a plan to overcome the challenge that you face. Most people leave it set a “start date” and make public their friends, family and coworkers. If you are pregnant is very important not to delay too long. Once you’ve set the “when” it is time to think about the “how.” You will have to decide if you’re ready to leave at once, if you prefer to download first the number of cigarettes per day and leave them completely within a week or two, or if you use a nicotine patch therapy. If you choose this last option, talk to your doctor to recommend a product. Whatever your decision, you need to have clear what you do when you’re between an irresistible urge to smoke. Some people chew gum or eat something, other people are going for a walk. Find something to distract you for a few minutes and help you resist temptation.
Get support from those around you
Quitting smoking is much easier if you try to do it alone. Support from family and friends can increase your chances of success. If you know someone who has quit smoking, call her when you feel a craving too big to give you encouragement. If you have family or friends who smoke, ask them not to do so before you. If your partner smokes, encourage him to quit or ask to leave the garden or the balcony to smoke. Some studies indicate that women more easily leave you if your partner does the same time.
Talk to your doctor
Whatever tactics you choose, a conversation with your doctor can mean the difference between success and failure. He can give you information and advise and at least give you some words of encouragement are always good. Do not let your first conversation about the snuff with your doctor is the last. If your next visit you are still smoking, tell it with full honesty and without feeling embarrassed. It is best to speak out for your welfare and your baby. And when you finally quit smoking, Tell too! No doubt share your joy.
Never forget why you’re quitting smoking
At first, you probably spend very bad times. If you do not feel a strong motivation, you probably have difficulty resisting the urge to smoke a cigarette. Experts believe that smokers have to be very clear why they want to quit, and that motivation must be very personal. In other words, we must be clear about why we have decided to support a process as hard as detoxification. I think this is one of the best gifts you can give your baby, while still in your womb. Constantly reminded of the benefits of not smoking, and of good courage. What you get!
Do not give up
Have a plan. You have the motivation. Your partner, your doctor, your family and friends support you. The time has come. You have to be stronger than the craving. If you give now, you have to start all over again. After some weeks, the withdrawal will start to recede and the urge to smoke will be less intense and frequent. If you smoke a cigarette again, do not beat yourself or lose sight of your goal. Many smokers try several times before the final. If you relapse do not beat yourself telling you that you have failed. Be positive: If you’ve gone a week without smoking, is a week in which neither you nor your baby have been exposed to toxins from snuff. Learn from each attempt to be better prepared next time.
