How do I quit smoking during pregnancy?
When it comes to quitting smoking during pregnancy, non-medicinal approaches are preferred. These include time for discussion and psychological support (groups, coaching, cognitive-behavioral therapy, etc.) and exercises (meditation, sophrology, etc.), preferably supervised by health professionals with recognized qualifications. As far as medication is concerned, nicotine substitutes are authorized for pregnant and breast-feeding women, and are available on prescription. Do not hesitate to consult your doctor.
