Name: Aish Hi,

Im married just bfore 1 year. my married life is good and im njoying. but onething is making me sooo sad and it pizzed me very much. My hubby have a habit to Smoke. he smoke for abt to 3 cigar a day.

Whenever i used to talk abt this r i used to advice him like, its not good for health , he wont take care of my words(only in this matter) .

Im really Worrying lot about his health. In weekend he had more advantage on having this in home. At that time i hide the packets too , it makes us to fight and argue abt this more.

Im living alone with my hubby in usa. I love him soo much. i want him so healthier thru out my life. PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZ can anyone give any idea r suggestion in this. I would be very grateful to you all , if you could find a solution to my problem.Thanks a lot.

my case was same as yours. my hubby used to smoke 8-10 cigs a day when we got married. It used to bother me a lot. Earlier i tried to explain him calmly but he never listned, then like you i too started hiding packets.. but that just increased tension between us. I remember we did not speak for 7 days once.. He felt bad that it bothered me so much so he agreed to using Nicotene/Nicoderm patches. I hope you have heard about them. They are available in all drug stores like Longs, Walgreens etc. My hubby was on patch for 3-4 months. While he was on patch if he still had the urge to smoke he would chue an ordinary bubble gum.

Convince you husband to try the patches for some days. It will help. A Friend replied. Hi Aish,

I was in the same situation as you when I got married. And I am very proud to say that he stopped smoking withought taking any medicines.

First of all go on to internet and find out some sites which shows the effects of smoking on health. Tell him that it could be a problem if you star trying for a baby. It is harmful to you as well, as a passive smoker.
I know it will take some time to make him ready to quit. Tell him to reduce smoking. Give him some vitamins suppliments to reduce the withdrawl symptons. Avoid the situations and places where he smokes usevally.

And most important don't force him too much. Let him take the decision first.

Good luck.....

Thanks alot for ub, A Friend and Archie. Thank u so much for ur replys. As ub said i will try to gothru that patches, and also i do print out this page and im planning to show this to my hubby.

I used to visit the site Philipsmorrisusa as said A Friend. Nothing does matter for him tll now.

As Archie told, Hope it do work , if i print out this page . But till now i felt unhappy. each and everyday i felt lot abt this, but i dunno why he doesnt make this as sense. Im 21 and he is 27. Any way , as u guys told, if any of the idea works, i will be very much grateful to u all.

Thanks alot again.
Have A Great Day!!!!!

Little to add

Dear Aish,
I am with "a friend" and "ub". I would also bring to his attention that smoking would have hugh impact on sperm counts and quality of sperms.
Sperm quality is most important along with sperm count. smoking can reduce motility or alter structure of sperm and such sperms will not make it thorough the way. I hope he will care to be a father in coming future.

Once you get pregnant he must not smoke as it will pose threats on your pregnancy, miscarriages and abnormal development and pre-term labor are afew to mention.

If you can do a favor print this out and show him.

If he needs he can follow advice of A friend and UB. That's best for him and his future. Should he want to be healthy for himself and proud father for his progeny he got to get rid of this habit.

Hope he understand importance than arguing with you.

True it's hard to rid any habit, but tring does not hurt either. persistance on trials will get him open the door of success and he will be clean one day.
Archie

RE:RE:female or male sex capsules or some other assesori

I don't think would work. It would make one have garlic breath which could be a turnoff. I strongly feel that this is the time in their life to put down Kama sutra and take up some Yoga Sutra and religious books. Maybe she becomes like him too. More spiritual.... - Kim [View Message]
