I heard my baby's heartbeat for the first time today which was beyond cool. My doctor says that I am so tired because of a combination of hormones and quitting smoking. To say that he was glad I quit would be a major understatement. He gave me a literal pat on the back and when I looked over at my husband, HE was beaming he was so proud. It felt really great and it helps me to stay determained to stay quit. I also ran into an old friend of my family's today who told me something that I didn't want to hear. She said that I need to be even more careful and determained in the next couple months. She said that the four times she failed at quitting, it was always after she thought she had it made. Both of these experiences today help me and I'm thankful for them, and for a place like this website to come and read up. Of course, its almost 8pm so my eyes aren't wanting to stay open much longer, but I'll get the reading done because I need to make this time work! Day 18 is almost the past.
