i feel the same way as you. I may graduate with my MSN, FNP in late 2014. I have kids, and I'm taking the 4 year program, for my MSN. Now if I graduate late 2014, that means, we wont make it the 2015 mark. what would that mean>? will all those years of nursing Masters degree school will be useless? do i have to return another two/three years for my DNP? i am so frustrated!

Ok, I'm an RN with 2 kids under 2. I've been pretty lucky in that I've gotten to stay home with them except a few PRN shifts here and there. I really want to go back to school to get my CNM which I can do through Frontier in 3 years if I do full-time. These changes in the guidelines for apns have me freaked out though. I don't want to start something that isn't going to do me any good. I can't afford to get a DNP. If I grad in late 2014 (this year's class is full), will I be ok to practice with my masters?? i'd rather wait until my kids are in school but I'm feeling like I don't have a choice, like it's a now or never kind of thing.
