Congrats!! I just got my call today too (I posted in the gen nursing student forum) I also have kids, although mine are mostly younger (13/2/7mos). I've been a stay at home mom for 4 years now and really am feeling very apprehensive about leaving my babes. I do have a fantastic husband who is great with the kids (maybe even better than I am, lol) and very available (he gets 6wks off a year plus any partial days he takes off dont count) so I know they will be taken care of, but its hard not to stress with so much time on our hands (doesnt it seem like forever until September???)
You will have the jitters in the beginning but once you actually start you are actually way too busy to have jitters:chuckles , it is just some much reading and understanding that you have no time and I mean no time to be nervous, and after you really get into it you are more excited than nervous becaude all these thing are leading up to you being a NURSE:nurse: can u believe it yes a nurse. So keep postive stay strong and time will fly just remember never stop reading, if u don't understand read it over and over again that is the best advise I can give:loveya: Good luck guys we need it.

I was accepted into the LPN program at our local CC. I am SO excited about it, but I am scared to death. I graduate with my AA degree next week and took all of my pre-req for ADN, but didn't get in. I know that its an extremely hard program to get in and understand that. But now I am just scared that maybe I won't be able to pass the LPN program. I am married with 2 kids (6/8) my husband works several hours from home and isn't home much to help out. My parent live nearby, and they are willing to help to some extent. I know that I am probably just stressing over nothing, but I want to go into this program will prepared. I want to have a plan A, B, and C when it comes to my kids. But at the same time, I don't want them to feel like their mom has just forgotten them for school.
Has anyone else had pre-program anxiety?
