Problem is, I know that time will never come. I am currently a pre-nursing student, and will hopefully start an acclerated BSN program in June. I would graduate the next August, after 4 intense semesters. I have been married for 15 months. I am 27 right now, will be 29 when I graduate. My husband is 10 years older than I am. We're both getting a little nervous that we should go ahead and do this sooner rather than later. The current plan is to quit using BC in my last (summer) semester and let nature take it's course, knowing I might not even get pregnant until after graduation, or it could happen the first time. That would entail sitting for NCLEX pregnant, going to interviews that way, and starting my first job a few or several months along. Everyone on the pre-nursing forum says not to do it while in school, since you never know how difficult the pregnancy will be. I just read previous discussions on this board, and everyone says not to do it in your first year of nursing. If I wait any longer though, I'll be in my 30s and DH in his 40s with our first child. What if we want more than one? He'd like to be able to play catch, etc., and to be alive long enough to meet his grandkids. Should we try while I'm in school? My program is very intense, but I saw two pregnant girls at the NS the other day when I had to go to a meeting. They might not be doing accelerated though, or could be graduating in Dec. DH has a hard time understanding why we can't just start trying now. We could, and I could apply to start in Jan 08 instead, but then I'd be doing NS with a newborn...please help!
