A pregnant mum has hit back at people who criticise her for vaping while she’s expecting, admitting she did during her first pregnancy too.

As reported by The Sun, Kaylee took to her TikTok to share a video slamming the “mum shamers” she’s seen online.

“This is typically something I wouldn’t post because I don’t like to get on here and talk, but something that has been going across my For You Page the last few days is actually bothering me a lot,” she said.

“People shaming other mums for either smoking or vaping while they’re pregnant.

“I am on my second pregnancy, I’m about 14 weeks, and I vaped my whole first pregnancy with my daughter.”

While Kaylee insisted she’s not saying “it’s okay” or “justifying it”, she described vaping as “a real addiction”.

“Nicotine is a real addiction and just with anything else, it’s not going to be easy to knock,” she said.

“I have been on other drugs and I’m completely sober apart from this vape – I cannot knock this thing at all.

“But why are we shaming people for that? Like really?”

She added in her caption: “Proud of the people who actually were able to quit, but shaming people who are struggling isn’t right.”

“Y’all really find an issue with everything that does not or will not effect (sic) you personally,” she wrote.

“Quit judging/shaming bc it’s not something you’d personally do.”

However, the comments section was quickly filled with people who did not share her point of view, calling her “selfish” for not giving up the vape for the sake of her unborn baby.

“Addiction isn’t easy, but as a mother it’s natural to put the health of your kid before your addiction,” one wrote.

“I vaped for about 5 years and was able to stop cold turkey knowing it wasn’t about me anymore … I think it’s quite selfish,” another added.

“Because it’s not just about you or the person pregnant anymore,” a third commented.

“It’s selfish not to stop. I stopped six days after I found out [I was pregnant].”

“Stopped right when I found out my baby health more important than any addiction,” another said.
