I’m so annoyed with my husband. When Covid happened and he started working from home, he picked up smoking cigarettes again. We both smoked before I got pregnant with my first, but I quit obviously once I found out I was pregnant. I’ll admit I’ve had a few social smokes after I gave birth, never around my son, only when I was out with friends. Not a regular thing. Anyways, when we talked about having another, he said he would quit once I’m pregnant. I would have liked him to quit sooner, but I thought maybe he needed something to really push him. I’m now almost 9 weeks and he did stop for a week! But he went ok a business trip this week, and came back with a pack. Told me today he’ll finish the pack, then quit again. I responded “what until your next trip? You travel twice a month, so it won’t be long until we’re back here again”. When I first got pregnant the smell just drove me nuts. It still does, but not as bad as it used to.

Am I being unreasonable? I know he’s not pregnant, lol, and can do whatever he wants, but it just bothers me. I have faith he will kick the habit before the baby is here, I’m just still annoyed. We have a 3 year old and he sees his daddy go outside a few times a day (he smokes in the garage, so at least my son can’t see him). He’s not a heavy smoker (maybe 3-5 cigs on a workday. Much less on the weekend). I know he’s got a lot on his plate a work, but ughhhh I wish he could just kick it for good.
