Trying to quit smoking while pregnant

Amanda

Okay so please no one judge me. I am 23 weeks pregnant and trying so hard to stop smoking. I talked to my doctor several times and he said I need to quit cold turkey. everytime I try I start feeling shaking and having had anxiety. I have cut back from over 20 a day to about 10 a day. I asked my doctor if I could use nicotine gum or the lozenges and he said I cant use anything I have to just quit cold turkey. My husband smokes and will not quit and my entire family smokes. I really want to quit it is best for my baby and myself. I also have a 6 year old daughter. the doctor I had with her told me to just cut back so I got down to 5 a day and she is fine. please someone give me some advise.
