Surprise pregnancy and chain smoker
I have been smoking for over a decade and suddenly found out I'm 5 weeks pregnant. I have had no time to prepare to quit smoking and it's becoming impossible to kick the butt, even though I've managed to bring it down to 1 a day. Please help/guide. Is there any way I can smoke just 1 a day? I know the ill-effects but please see this problem from my lens.
