I never really know whether I ought to comment on threads like this because of the backlash....
But I am probally the most disgusting one here.
I was taking hundreds of pounds worth of cocaine when I found out I was pregnant, because FOB was a very well-off coke addict. And drinking like an idiot. I was drunk every weekend and coked up every DAY.
I gave up alcohol pretty quickly when I found out as I only drank socially and was never an alcoholic...
But I was still hooked on coke for a long time into my pregnancy. It was so fucked up. I'd feel sooo guilty, but when I snorted it I felt so good, like me AND my baby were invincible! Obviously when I crashed I realised that actually, I was KILLING both of us.
I gave up completely around 15/16 weeks...but had a couple of relapses since. I am appalled at myself. Scans have shown everything to be fine. But if he's born all messed up I don't know what I'd do, and I'd only have myself to blame.
Obviously I know it was an addiction...and cocaine is one of the most addictive substances there are. But I should have locked myself up away from it, ANYTHING.

So whilst I have never smoked, I could never judge someone who still smokes during pregnancy!
