HI.
I would recommend reducing gradually and then discontinuing as cold turkey can also pose some threats. But please speak to a counsellor as well who can help you cope. But I am sure you understand that in your baby's best interest, it would be advisable that you stop smoking at the earliest.
Best wishes.
