Hi, I've just turned 25! I've been smoking for about 9 years which as I type it is quiet scary. I want to quit, I have tried a couple of times but with no succsess me and my partner are trying for our first baby and I know how smoking can affect my chances of concieving. I'm hoping being on here can give me some motivation and tips for quitting!

Thanks for reading, nice to meet you all!

Hello Heregosnothing, well done on making the decision and welcome to this great forum.

I am a new member, now on my 22nd day of being smoke free.

We have all tried to stop smoking at least once before, but you have the best reason ever (trying for a baby)

This site is wonderful, full of encouragement, support and great tips for quitting. I just know that you will receive lots of support from all on the site.

Nice to meet you and good luck.

Welcome to quit support. Thank you for joining our lovely community.

Here on quit support our aim is to help people be free of nicotine addiction, whether

Its through cigarettes, shisha, vaping, salts, jules, or any other method.

Nicotine itself is not harmful, but it is the main substance that keeps us all addicted.

Once the nicotine has left the body (usually within 3 to 4 days) we need to rid our

Bodies of the 4000+ chemicals that are still damaging our system.

If you read through the pinned posts , we have a lot of useful and informative articles

On there to help you with your quit journey.

These can be found at the bottom or the right hand side of this page.

Remember to drink plenty of water to help rid the toxins from tobacco.

I have a post somewhere on quitting when pregnant etc. which i will try and find and bob on, which may help you . I wish you and your partner lots of luck with quitting and hopefully some good news very soon. 👶

Please don’t hesitate to ask , if you have a query . There is usually someone around

Who can help.

We wish you good luck with your quit journey. 😊

Please let us know when you start your quit , and we can assign you the appropriate badge next to your name.

Hi Heregosnothing , Well done for your decision to quit👏

Welcome to Quit Support.💙

It’s never easy to quit but it’s easier with a little support.💪

Starting a family is a massive motivation for quitting!

I suggest you try and get organized on how you want to quit, Are you going to use NRT nicotine replacement therapy (which in the UK includes vaping)or are you going to quit cold turkey (without any aids).

Whichever way you decide to quit we will support you all the way.

Please read the pinned posts,📌 there is lots of information there. You will find the posts to the right or at the bottom of your screen depending which device you are using.

May I suggest you drink plenty of water💧💦 to flush out the toxins and keep yourself hydrated.

If you feel you need any more help please don’t hesitate to ask. There is always someone here.

May I remind you not to post any personal information.

Good luck with your quit.🍀🚭xx
