I had been vaping for about three years. 

So, the deciding factor that I absolutely needed to stop vaping was when myself and my partner found out we were expecting a baby. I immediately worried about the effects vaping could have on the baby that I was growing. I really just didn't want to put my baby at risk. 

Some of the benefits I felt after I gave up was I could breathe better, I just felt overall better in my general health, my cough disappeared, and I was just really happy with myself for finally being able to give up that habit, both for myself and for the baby as well..
