Remember reasons for not smoking such as, I want to take care of my baby, I want to save money, I want to protect my baby from smoke. Avoid temptations. Triggers can be friends, locations, a cup of coffee or alcohol. Keep cigarettes out of the house. Find healthy ways to deal with stress and "baby blues." Ideas could be to take a walk, calla friend, join a parent support group. If the "blues" become such that you can't take care of your baby, or the "blues" won't go away, you may want to talk to a doctor. Other ways to avoid smoking is to ask family and friends for support, or call a smoke free hot-line like 1-800-NOBUTTS, or 1-800 QUIT-NOW.
