We started last Monday and have already had 4 exams, and will have our 5th exam tomorrow. We are good crazy fast! Good luck to you all! :)

Be thankful for the break you have lol. We just started Monday and we already have an exam today and a paper and an exam tomorrow. Just relax! Trust me haha.

I start LPN school on August 20. My husband and I have a 15 month old, and we would really like to keep our kids about 2-3 years apart. Our plan is to try for a summer 2013 baby since I will have the entire summer off school, then finish up in the fa...

I personally don't prefer to bring my laptop to class anyway; I'd rather write out notes. Thank you for your input! I am excited and nervous about school.

I start LPN school on August 20, only about a week away! I am wondering what to bring to class. All my acceptance letter said was to come to class in full uniform (scrubs & white shoes) and to bring one book (Intro to Healthcare Workers). Do I ne...

I understand how you are feeling. I haven't graduated an LPN program, but I am starting one on the 20th. I have a 15 month old daughter and my husband and I would really like another child. I know we are probably going to have to wait til the end of ...

I'm also 21. I went to college in high school (dual enrolled) and after high school but kept changing my mind lol. Finally decided what I wanted to do about a year and a half ago. I had to go back and do prerequisites for the RN program and then I di...

Yes, I was chosen as an alternate for Tallahassee Community College's nursing program for Fall 2012. They accepted 48 people and I was alternate number 14, but they only called alternates 1 through 4. I was disappointed but LPN school was my back up ...

Good luck with your second week. I start school on the 20th. I am nervous and excited.

It's not a community college. It's called Lively Technical Center. I don't think they let you sit out and then come back.

That's what I was thinking. Plus, we are planning on moving in 2014 and I think it would be easier to move with a baby and a toddler than with me being all big and pregnant lol. We would have to wait til I'm in a job for a few months before getting p...

It seems that I am okay with waiting if that's the best thing, but my husband is still not so sure haha. He's almost 5 years older than me and really wants another child (so it's not just women lol). I explained to him that we'd be able to have anoth...

That's one of the reasons for waiting, so I can have a stable job so we can move to a better house with better school zones. I don't want us to struggle any more than we have to already because I am not working while in school.

Wow! You are strong for going through all of that. I'm glad your baby is okay. I would really like to have a baby sooner rather than waiting, but I just don't know.

It doesn't help when your family and friends are all having or have babies. My daughter is already 15 months, time flies! It seems just like yesterday when she was born.

I didn't think it would be a walk in the park. I just wanted to hear others experiences. After talking with my husband, I think we have decided to wait til after I'm stable in a nursing job, even I that's not my first choice.

LPN school wasn't my first choice either. I was an alternate for a RN program, but not enough people dropped out in time.

I didn't really find what I was looking for here, I guess women who have gone through this before use baby forums and get more support. I really do want this (school that is), and I do not plan to give up my spot.

Imight not have been in nursing school before but I have been in college. I graduated 9 months pregnant and made A's and B's in my classes. I only took the summer off, and then went back to school full time while working part time. If you read correc...

I plan on getting my RN online after finishing LPN school, so I'm going to be in school a while either way. I would rather have another child before starting a new job rather than starting a job then finding out I'm pregnant and having to ask for mat...

dancingostrich, That's why I'm thinking we should wait to get pregnant til the very end of school. Yes I do plan on breastfeeding for as long as possible. I only breastfed my daughter up until she was 1 month do to some problems. I guess my husband ...

Nurse2bKimberly, I understand what you're saying. My husband and I have also thought about waiting to get pregnant til towards the end of the program (the last semester). I know not all pregnancies are the same, but with my daughter I had no problems...

The LPN program I'm attending is 15 months in length, ending December 2013. It's at Lively Technical Center in Tallahassee, FL.

Thank you for your reply! :) You are a great encouragement. My school requires that you have a signed note from your doctor saying you're in good health. We are going to try to have the baby during the summer, so I won't be going into labor while in ...

My school does allow pregnant students in the program, they will even allow time off if you have the baby during a semester. I am really asking for people who have done this before to tell me how it was for them, not to have someone tell me I'm stupi...
