I actually gave birth to my son the day after my finals! I actually did go back to school when winter break was over and that was only once a month for 2 hrs and I preferred it that way because I didn't want to leave him like that. I think 1 class on campus and maybe just 1 online is best because it is hard to focus so that's just my opinion! Good luck with everything!!

I wouldn’t do it. For myself I wouldn’t be able to handle leaving my baby at a week old. Those first few weeks are crucial for newborns too for development and bonding and I myself just wouldn’t be able to handle that lol also I’d be careful because like someone else said you just don’t know how you will recover or handle recovering and school

@viviana.ayala105 I don't think your sister would offer to help if she didn't actually want to. I'd say don't turn down help. She's their auntie after all ❤

@beemommyof3, so do two on campus and one online ? i think i can do that . at least i really hope i can .

@mwhiteoak21, that's what i'm afraid of . even when i didn't have a baby , i failed miserably and i had all the time in the world . now my time for school would be limited since i'm a stay at home mom now and everyone else is at work and school . my bf can take care of the baby's one of the days i go to school and my sister the other because she said she can go to later classes if i need the help , which i really appreciate and i want to take advantage of that but then again , i feel bad because they aren't her kids yet she is willing to watch a soon to be one year old and new born all by herself . i know it will only be for one day throughout the week but idk i just don't like the feeling of depending on people you know ? but i know this needs to be done . i need to finish school and start somewhere

@viviana.ayala105 You dont need to focus on what your friends are doing. just because you do it in a different order doesnt make it wrong at all. You can still be successful. How bout one online class and then next class you can do in the class room

@beemommyof3, idk , with my first i took the semester off and bonded with him and didn't start work till he was 5 months but i feel like school can't wait any longer . i know it will always be there but i'm 21 , i should've gotten my BA like all my other friends and i'm still not close to getting my AS . i feel like i need to start now or i never will and i'll always keep making excuses 😣

@viviana.ayala105 you gotta do what you think is best for yurs and yur kids future girl

@caseysmommy92, i know but just the thought of being gone for half the day for 2 days a week seems like a lot when the last pregnancy i had , i took the semester off and just bonded with my baby . i just have so much on my mind idk what to do and i don't want to take the classes just to fail so i think about dropping them but i know i want to finish school . i NEED to finish and i won't if i keep taking semesters off 😞

It's 20 times harder to focus on school work and learning when you're at home with kids who will want your attention. My husband and I both tried to do online classes and failed miserably. The only way we'll go back to school is on campus.

Are you prepared to be away from the baby at a week old. i personally wouldnt plan like that because you never know what post delivery will be like.

I dont see anythng wrong with that! School is very important and if its only a couple hours a day that should be fine!
