So I just recently found out I was pregnant...what are some of the best ways to quit smoking?I'm going to quit so I really am not looking for information on how smoking harms the baby or anyone else, I already know that so you can save the lecture for someone else. <~~~~~see I already started to quit, can't you tell by how crabby that sounds. Thanks, I'm just having some hard time kicking the cravings.

Chew gum, eat candy

I was considered the least likely to succeed at quitting smoking. I smoked a LOT or a very LONG time!
As smoking became less acceptable in public places I decided to make myself WANT to be a non-smoker.
I did it. That was over ten years ago.
I worked on the mental preparation for over a year- building a strong desire, and getting up a mental list of all the reasons for smoking compared to all the reasons for not smoking.
I was determined to not spend a single penny on someone with a gimmik or medication to "help" me quit.
I think my personal method was to use the strongest things that nature gave me: my emotions- ALL of them!
The saddest thing about my success in this is that I cannot help my family members quit. They just are too damned dumb to do it.
I wish you all success- JUST DO IT!

nicotine gum you can get it at 711 or drop it cold turkey which means just stop

I too was a smoker when I found out I was pregnant. Not sure if your baby's father is also a smoker, but it REALLY helps when he stops with you. That way you're not the only one who feels limited in what you can and cannot do with your "new" body. Take care in knowing that it does get so much easier right around 3 weeks to a month. So don't look at it as "I'm quitting forever". Look at it as "I'll feel better in three weeks". Eventually, the smell will get gross, then you won't even crave a cig when you see someone else smoking... little leaps as you progress really improve your outlook. I smoked for four years and LOVED it. Now I see someone smoking and I find it truly disgusting.

Just do it!
Don't smoke when you wake up, after you eat, or in the car.
Make a conscious effort to smoke less cigarettes everyday until you smoke none at all.
Remind yourself constantly how important your baby is.
