Something I didn't realise until I've been quit for 2 years

Hey everyone, this is a bit of a long post. I really want to share my thoughts and experience with you all. I've been quit for 2 years (I quit 23/02/2022 at 12.30pm). Two weeks after I quit, I found out I was pregnant after 6.5 years of trying. My son is a perfect tantrum-y 17 month old toddler. Now baby #2 is on the way.

When I was 17, HSC year, my dad died of cancer (melanoma). I lashed out. Treated him and everyone terribly.

I thought it was my biggest regret not being fair to him. Being angry and treating him like garbage.

It's not my biggest regret. My dad always knows I love him and how I was, he knows that isn't me.

The day I began smoking is my absolute biggest regret. Early in this pregnancy I developed an alarming cough. Everything is fine, but it made me realise even though I've quit years ago, I can still develop serious health issues. Starting to smoke cigarettes and continuing to smoke heavily is something I can never undo. Everyone has something or someone to lose.
