Hi there, I am new to this site and trying to figure it out still. Let me make this short and sweet. I am 32 yrs old, a new mom of a 1 year old, preggo with #2, and have decided that nursing is the way to go for me. I decided to change careers out of the horrible coorporate world and am going to quit after this next baby and hopefully start school fall 07. I love the medical field and I think the flexiblity and opportunity of nursing is what I need to do.
I just wish I knew someone else in it! I need some support that this is a good decision. Are there any other mid-career changers out there in nursing school or already an RN?
I love to hear from you!!

I think many of us here are mid-career changers! In my Nursing 100 class more than 1/2 of the class are 26+ and either going for a 2nd Bachlor's degree or changing careers to something more "full-filling".
You've come to the right place, I find tons of support in the classes I'm taking now!

I am also changing careers in my 40's. I will graduate in September and I love the nursing career. Make sure you have alot of support from your family as school is very time consuming.....but well worth it. Good luck!
