      asking for a friend who has `cut down` to 5 cigarettes a day for the past 6 months. (ok, with each failed ivf, she binged smoked, etc, but got back on the wagon and only smoked 5 a day after a weekend of binge drinking, smoking).. she is 42 and been trying for 6 years now... 3 failed IVFs... i keep trying to encourage her to quit as prior to 6 months ago, she was more of a 10 to 20 cigarette a day smoker...


      she insists she will stop when (if ) she gets pg (which I know she will)

      i know addictions are hard, but how can i help her without getting her upset at my comments? or should i just say nothing? but then what kind of friend would i be ? or am i nuts and maybe smoking has nothing to do with her inability to get pg and it is just an age thing...(she has had all tests and she and DH are both ok)
