Please help me decide if I should start the LPN program

Published

[h=1][/h]I have been accepted to the LPN program. However I am unsure if I should start because I just found out I am pregnant. i will be 14 weeks along when the 10 month program starts. There are a few other factors that go into consideration, I live far from the school itself and would spend $80-100 a week for gas. I would work weekends as a CNA so the money will not be exactly flowing. I do not qualify for financial aid because my gpa is 1.89, and school loans are not an option because my parents will not cosign. So I would have to work to pay for gas and tuition and books. I also live on my own so I have other expenses. I will also have my baby in the middle of the program and do not know how it will affect me academically, I will be a first time mom. I am just afraid I will bite off more than I can chew, and am terrified of not being able to continue because of financial issues. My other option is just to continue taking pre requisite courses little by little until my gpa goes up and I am able to qualify for financial aid, and hopefully by that time I would be able to do the RN program. What would you do? What would you recommend? please help
