Hi im new to the forum. I stopped smoking on the 29th April, I started out the the inherlater for a few days but found it rubbish. So put it in the draw and have been could turkey since. My husband gave up 4 days after me but he is using champix.

Our motivation for this is out 9 year old girl and the fact we are about to imbark on IVF. So thats me, on day 18 feeling really good about it all the craving are getting better. I look forward to getting to know you all. Thanks for reading.

day 18 is brilliant ....coming up to 3 weeks ...how good are you.

So you should feel good about it ...Big pat on the back, I dont know much about IVF but i guess smoking dosnt help it much....A huge incentive

Hey,

Well done on getting that far into your quit! I can safely say the worst is over and now all that remains is for you to beat the psychological demons that will taunt you until the nicotine clears from your body. I found that smoke dreams are the most messed up of these demons.

Just remember to keep mentally well balanced, take walks, drink plenty of water and try to eat a variety of fruit!
