Hi! I am in a similar boat. I'm 42 with 4 kids, and 4 semesters ahead of me-Going back for my 2nd degree. I just finished my first semester of some nursing prereq (microeconomics, advanced physiology, etc) It was really hard, but I made it through with A's and B's. Its a huge juggle and I often feel like I'm putting some things on hold. I couldnt do it without my husband, he is a huge help with the kids when i have to study. But, of course I want to be doing it too. I love reading the comments..I'm glad to know I'm not the only one going through this!

Thank you guys so much for the support and tips. I am already starting to organize. Actually found a lot of meal planning & crock pot stuff today, which I am planning on using. I really appreciate your input!

Hi, I am returning to school as a mom in the fall, full-time. This is a second degree, my first degree is in Public Health-and I have been a Health Educator working perdiem for years. My kids are (15, 7, 5, 3)..3 in school full-time. Is anyone else or doing this or has done it? I'd love any tips to make it work. Thanks!
