   Each essay prompt is different. It is 2 pages double spaced and the use of internet to find information is not permitted. Mine was something like, "why do I want to be in the nursing field besides wanting to help others?" It is not really something t...

   No, definitely not. Otherwise I am sure people would not be commenting on this page with how happy they are that they were accepted, applying, reapplying etc...

4. Pregnancy in nursing program

   naomiomio replied to naomiomio's topic in General Students

   That is a good point, I did not think about that. My husband gets 2 weeks maternity leave so he could bring the baby to me when he/she needed to breast feed. I know I could make the breast feeding part work. I am just worred about the school portion.

   naomiomio replied to naomiomio's topic in General Students

   Oh totally! I plan on breastfeeding the baby whenever I am around. Just when I have clinicals/theory 3-4 days a week I don't want my baby to have formula. I would rather have breast milk already ready and have a supply. Thanks for the great info! I w...

   naomiomio replied to naomiomio's topic in General Students

   I agree! I think it will be hard and I have always wanted to stay at home with my baby for awhile BUT, life throws you curve balls! I figured if I am not breast feeding I will be pumping and keep a supply! I hear breast milk keeps well and can even b...

   I am hoping that when I talk to the associate director tomorrow I will be able to have a spot "held" for me. Since the next cohort I would possibly be joining starts in October I could hopefully have a spot for me reserved in November-ish.

   My problem with not wanting to take time off is that my husband is in the Marines and wants to transfer to the Coast Guard so he will not be deployed. Anyhow, he will be done in December of 2012 and without taking any time off I will graduate May 201...

   I completely agree with you. I believe that many students have done it which means anyone has potential to do both if they set their mind to it.

    naomiomio replied to naomiomio's topic in General Students

    I too believe it is all on the person. I am hoping I can be one of those! Not saying that newborns are "easy" but it is a lot of sleeping, eating. I don't think you have to worry as much about crawling around, and getting into everything as you do wi...

    My school does does not work in semesters unfortunately. It is a private school and it is one class at a time. Each class is one-2 months depending on which class it is. I was told I would have to take time off, the minimum is 3 months since their nu...

    That is exciting! I start the beginning of July and am supposed to graduate May 2013. Each of my classes are 1-2 months long (one class at a time). This is my first baby too. It was crazy to find out. I took two tests because I was sure that I was ha...

    Congrats BizeeBee! Looks like we are in the same boat! It would be great to stay in contact throughout school since we will have similar experiences. So you are probably 5-6 weeks as well? When does your nursing program start? Where is your nursing s...

    canundergrad- I am having the same sort of issues! I emailed my school and was talking with one girl, then she forwarded my email to another person, and so on. I was told that I HAVE to take leave. Which, it is BS if I am determined to do both then I...

    naomiomio replied to lovinla23's topic in Pre-Nursing

    Hi, I know this post is really old but I wanted to ask you how nursing school went while being pregnant. I just found out and I am starting nursing school in July. I will be due around mid December. Was it doable?! Thanks so much!
