Quitting is tough: I commend you for your eagerness to quit. If you were a heavy smoker, then it will definitely be difficult to quit cold turkey. You can devise a regimen with your doctor. Your doctor might also provide your with other resources, such as group sessions or programs. Wish you all the best!

Don't do it.: Let your baby motivate you. Don't smoke anything, now nor once you deliver. Nor ever more.
