Hi there. My son just turned 7 weeks old this morning. I think that the way you suggested is exactly how I'm going to be making it happen. Slowly, but surely. I'm anxious and scared all at the same time. The biggest part about nursing that scares me is putting an IV in. I have horrible veins and nurses have trouble with me all of the time. I don't want to hurt people! But, I guess that is part of it. Thank you for your suggestion. Good luck and God bless!

Short background: Entered college 7 long years ago ready to go pre-med and allowed my fear of failure to completely back me into a corner and out of my dream of being a doctor. Life went on. Graduated, got married, entered into the real estate world as an admin and then sales person, and then, I became pregnant. After a traumatic birth and dealing with my son's brachial plexus injury, I realize that the nurses are what helped me make it through my stay in the hospital. I want to help people like that. Still, I am terrified. Terrified that I'm not going to be able to balance the stress of nursing school while trying to work and raise my little boy. I need some reassurance. Or perhaps someone to talk me out of it:bugeyes:
