Pregnant in nursing school...

[2KevsnHayley]

I am almost finished my first year of school and got accepted into this great externship program that will hire me when I graduate, I'm so excited I love school (as hard and exhausting as it is) and I recently found out I am pregnant! I am so nervous about finishing and finding the extra time that I barely have now. I have two children who are 5 and 7 and a great husband who helps me out so much, but I know this is going to be a challenge. I desperately wanted another baby but not until I was finished school. Is there anyone else with a similar experience who would like to share a few words of wisdom.

P.S. I will never give up that is not an option for me, i will just work extra hard until the end...but then again isn't that what nurses do?!:)

Do you have the option of taking a year off and without having to re-apply to the program?

Babies come when they come. We had one girl that had a baby last semester...she had the baby on Friday and was back to school on Monday.

However we have another one that is pregnant, due in late June, and her OB is already threatening to put her on bedrest.
