I'm currently enrolled getting my bachelors. If I get all my classes passed I will graduate in May. This is the second pregnancy I've had in my 3 1/2 years of school and this little boy will be my 3rd child.

Im full time now in the nuclear med program. I think it will be hard with a newborn but we can do it.

Dont feel like a failure. Im 28 and on my third major. Lol...i have 2 other half degrees but dont actually have a diploma for anything. My plan was to have a degree before any babies but oh well. Ill get it i have a 2 year old and this little guy is due mid semester. Im not taking any days off at all. Hopefully baby comes on weekend. Lol

I'm going back next year for my masters.

Thank you so much ladies. You all have given me so much motivation!! I am determined to succeed and get my masters! I'm glad to see that you all have accomplished so much while having children, and I plan to do the same. All for my son!!

I had my first baby halfway through college. Before her, I partied & only took 12 credits per semester. Then I fell in love, got pregnant, & thought I'd ruined my life. After her birth I was a single mom & took a year off from school to take care of her. Then I pulled up my bootstraps, transferred schools all the way across the country--5,000 miles from home & didn't know a soul. I was determined to graduate ASAP since I'd lost some time, & in order to provide a nice life for us, so I took 21-23 credits per semester thereafter. My baby went to daycare 8 am-2 pm daily while I took 3-4 classes per day. Then I picked her up and we went to my nanny job till 7 pm. Then dinner, bath, put her down to bed, then the studying began. This worked for me because I am a night owl. This was our routine for 2 years plus 2 summer school sessions. I liked the fact that my baby was still with me for at least half the day. Only once I graduated (with honors) did I realize how much I'd just accomplished. As the other moms here said, "You do what you gotta do." It is VERY difficult at times, but it is possible.

I then taught in the inner city for years and didn't go back for my Master's until 6 years after earning my Bachelor's. I really needed the break after such a stressful life & career choice. I felt "behind" my peers for awhile, but once I got to grad school I had classmates of all ages. Most of them were around 30 years old, close to my age, so I really liked that too. I would do it the same way again if I had to do it over. Be gentle with yourself & see how you feel once baby arrives. Your priorities may change, & it's ok if they do (or don't). Good luck, whatever you decide!

I managed nursing school with a 3 year old a newborn. I survived! Not unmanageable. You just have to be organized

I did my entire bachelors after having my daughter. It's hard but we do what we have to do and our children are the best motivation. I definitely understand feeling like your not even close the where you want to be in life. I was active duty for 8 years and got out when I had our daughter. Went to school full time and now baby #2 is on the way and I'm just barely interview for jobs and I'm 29 ?. I plan on going for my masters whenever I get a job and can save up for it a little.

DD was 3.5 months old when I went back to school. My best piece of advice is when you set up your child care make sure you are giving yourself extra time in the day to get your work done. If class gets out at 2 for the day, pick up lo at 4. It will save your life and sanity. Giving yourself that extra time during the day keeps you from pulling all nighters and let's you get some sleep and salvage what you can from your weekend. Also DO NOT PROCRASTINATE! A child is a pro at knowing when something is due and getting sick/being extra clingy/not giving you the time to do something last minute. They seriously get all Murphy's law on you and whatever can go wrong will go wrong if you procrastinate.

I just completed my masters program in May. I had my daughter and my son while still taking classes. I only took one class a semester because I still worked full time as well. My oldest is five so that's how long it took me. It wasn't easy but it was worth it. Especially when they saw my walk on graduation day. I will admit I spent many a nights pumping in my car before class though:)

I'm in the same position as you. I graduated 2014, planned on a Master's right away, and it didn't happen. Then, I got pregnant. I want to be able to continue my education but don't know how that will work with a newborn. I also work full-time. I know it's possible and I will be doing not just for me, but for my little one as well. I wish you luck! We can do it.

@w are you online or do you go to a campus. With my major, biology, there is no online option. Im worried that will make it harder.

I'm currently going for my Master's degree right now. I graduated with my BA in March and started again right away. I have been in school since before my 2 year old was born and now (obviously) pregnant. It is tough...I can't sugarcoat that lol, but my biggest thing is prioritizing. I do homework when she naps and usually have a set schedule for things. It is all doable, just have a schedule!!....and don't procrastinate like I do ?
