Today seems to be the roughest day yet! I swear my 2 year old is doing everything she can to be bad. I've tried doing so many things to put her in a good mood but it's not working. Tantrums are irritating and irritation makes me want to smoke! Hopefully she's in a better mood after a little nap so mommy doesn't want to slip.

Oh poor you coping with quitting and a little one. You will probably be more tense than usual do to your quit. I know you said you were going cold turkey, but it may help if you had some form of nrt. to fall back on. i.e. gum, lozenges, spray or e.cig. Dont forget if you are tense your little one will pick up on this and probably be worse too.

Deep breathing is a good exercise for calming down. xx

Just think your little girl will be healthier too with no smoke around. Stay strong, even if you come on here and scream , we dont mind. xx

My husband uses the e-cigarettes so I have easy access to one. Maybe I'll have him set me up with one when he gets home from work. Do I use nicotine or would that make me gravitate more towards cigarettes again?
