Sorry but this came to mind this morning and it's kind of depressing to think about. Here I see a good portion of my friends heading off to a big 4 year college and moving into their dorms here soon, and then there's me. A baby on the way attending a shitty 2 year community college because I just didn't think it was in my cards. I got offers many full ride scholarships but I just wasn't interested. It's a bitter sweet moment, thinking that could have been me more worried about school and going across country to better my education. 😔

Hey Hey Hey.
Dont beat yourself up based on other ppls life choices. That used to be me until i realized my choices were based on ME, and what i felt was right for me.
u can always transfer to a 4uear university later l did and l just graduated last week with my bachelors degree and I'm 32 weeks pregnant. do not get discouraged
It's never too late. I had a friend come into college (4 yr) with a 2 yr old. She stayed in family housing dorms on campus and sent her to daycare while she was in class. Now my friend is about to finish up her Doctorate degree and her daughter is about 8 now. She started college with us and graduated on time with us. You should be able to get lots of funding because of your situation and being a full time independent student. Many universities have family housing to make it easier. Plus your child will grow up on campus and get an understanding of education and how important it is.
Your path is not theirs.... I use to think like that since I'm 25 and have nothing to show for it. Most of the people I went to high school with have multiple degrees and pretty much have a beautiful future ahead of them, on paper..... Then I started to think about what life could've been, then I realized my journey is different.
Don't feel discouraged with your path. A lot of times community college is a better way to start. It's cheaper and since you're close to home you can focus. I wish I would have went to community college first actually.
