Pregnant while starting the nursing program

What would your options be IF you did need more than 3 days of recovery? Would you be kicked out of the program, but with a chance to come back? I know with my program, you only really have one chance.

I'm starting the LVN nursing program June 30th 2011 and I'm 5mos which ill be 6mos when I start. My plan is to go on and start while I have nothing to do with my time and no job. So Oct 14th is my due date and I may miss 3days of school which I was told that would be fine as long as I don't miss 10 days in a row. And I will have plenty of time to study because new born babies tend to sleep alot plus my boyfriend will be committed to helping me. I thinking my pregnancy should be fine because this will be my 3rd pregnancy and haven't had any problems yet. So finally has anyone had problems while going to nursing school while pregnant?

LOL, who told you that? i guess if this is your third, you have an idea of what you are getting into. i think you will be very tired. but it is possible, it will just be a lot of work. good luck!

@windmill182 i would be drop from the program but i would be allowed to come back but may have to start over just depending on my grades. i can only miss 10 days in a row if something was to happen but would be able to come back in this situation. thanks for the question it made me look into it even more than what i did. i was just thinking i would be drop from the program and thats it. well i'm happy i got more information about it.
