I actually gave one heavily pregnant woman a mouthful last week when I saw her smoking. She was holding the fag about three inches from her toddler's face as well.
I know it's none of my business, and I did struggle with giving up when I found out I was expecting DD, but I managed it, you know.
*sigh*
I think it's harder to see that sort of thing when you are desperate to conceive.
yeah, true, have always been very angered by it, but more so now. Good to hear from an ex-smoker that its possible though and that they have no excuse!
yeah, makes me mad too - it is so ignorant & to think of all them toxins going straight tot he baby.
I can't even stand to walk behind people who are smoking when I have my son with me, I make a right fuss of getting past - especially as Kyle always comments on the naughty things they are having, he really doesnt like it, bless him!
I think I am worse though as used to be a smoker myself until 6 years ago - despise it now though thank god!
i stopped smoking the day i found out i was pregnant. it wasnt about me anymore and weather i wanted a ciggaret, the baby came first as far as i was concerned! and the thought of starting after was awful the thought of holding my baby while i stank of smoke . no way. its makes me so angry. my son was in speciaol care and the amount of mums outside smoking who would then go in and hold thier tiny ill babies. argh.
I agree, i saw a women outside the bowling the other night and she had a cig hanging out her mouth to say i was raging was an understatemet i think she knew from the look i gave her haha xx
