Should I drop this class????

Published

I haven't started the nursing program yet. I won't until Spring 2005. Right now I'm still working on getting all my pre-reqs finished. All I have left to do is micro and A&P II. Well, this summer I am enrolled in micro and the class just started today. I am 34 weeks pregnant and our instructor warned us that in lab we will be working with microorganisms that "have the potential to cause disease", for example, E coli. This sounds dangerous to me and I don't want to put my baby at risk. I didn't know this before taking this class or else I just would have waited. Should I drop this class and just wait?? For all of you that have taken micro what kind of microorganisms did you work with??

I just finished my Micro class this past semester and I have to say that I agree with everyone else here....Follow safety precautions and you'll be fine. It's a really great class and I LOVED it. I was terrified of taking it because I'd heard so many people talk about how difficult it was AND I was taking A&P II as well. It was too interesting to be difficult though! We had tons of fun in Micro!

I believe you will be fine. Just be sure to wear your gloves and goggles and an apron, to feel more safe.

Good Luck to you!
