Never even crave it during the day, gave that up long ago. But come evening, I'm on the deck too. This is such a touchy subject that brings strong opinions from just about everyone I know. We've all heard the arguments, so I won't go there. That said, what I would like to point out is, there are lots of things that slowly damage your health, and many are legal. So, what I want to know IS, do you think the mommy who feeds herself a diet that consists mainly of fast food, high fat foods, processed foods, etc. has the same Catholic guilt smoking moms have?? Don't be so hard on yourself, you are not expected to be perfect. Hipster Mom, this is a GREAT choice and I will do my best to support you. GOOD LUCK!! I am a nighttime smoker.

(My lame impression of the guy in all the Adam Sandler movies.) You seem to be a woman in charge of her own mind so I'm sure you can do what it takes. My husband has the same story - the cigs really had an adverse effect on his marathon training (he's since moved on to triathlons). You have some great motivating factors, so those should help. Not to mention the price of cigarettes these days - what the f*ck? Stay strong - you'll have lots of positive vibes heading your way. YOU CAN DO EEET!

I quit smoking about 5 years ago...WAAAY before I got pregnant and it's not easy. You have my support! But sometimes, just sometimes, I wonder what would happen if I were to light up just once more...then I slap myself back into reality. I'd be divorced for one and really ashamed of myself for two... Rock on, Hipster Mom! Way to go. I quit smoking about 5 years ago…WAAAY before I got pregnant and it’s not easy. You have my support!

Rock on, Hipster Mom!

I also used to smoke and still sometimes dream of it, but, like you, could never be a casual smoker. So I don't ever start. It's a really hard thing to give up, and I remember being pregnant and even though I had quit, all I could think of was "O.k., I'll finish this, and then I'll have a smoke." It was so ingrained. Love your blog! New here, but GOOD FOR YOU!
