    Smoking

    I don't smoke cigarettes but I started smoking hashish or hookah just recently that's the tobbaco with flavor. Do you think that it will help with sway. Both my sisters smoke cigarettes and both have girls but I really don't like the taste or smell. Can someone chime in. Thanks

    Yep, should sway pink to some degree, though I would never recommend smoking anything bc of how unhealthy it is. Plus I think it's gross, personally.

    For example, I'm sure smoking crack (as 'proved' by my half sister) sways pink and strongly, too, but I don't think it's worth it. Not that hookah smoking is remotely on par with crack abuse, but just to make a point. I don't personally feel comfortable doing anything that I know is significantly unhealthy, no matter how pink it sways, even short term. But I am a health nut and consider regularly eating trans fat, most non organic food, GMO food, aspartame etc all too unhealthy, and roughly on par with light hookah use. So I think it comes down to what YOU feel comfortable with.

    Thanks ladies for the replies. The last time I used hookah was over the summer and part of the reason I also brought it up because one of my coworkers is drinker and smokes hooka and yep you guessed Girl

    It does sway pink but I NEVER recommend anyone take up smoking for swaying. Especially mamas. PLEASE PLEASE don't smoke when TTC.
