Trying to figure out if I can handle working, being a mom and going back to school!

Published

I'm planning to apply to a night associates program which would start spring 2011. I already have my BS degree and work in the healthcare industry. My work will pay for me to go back to school and are somewhat flexible. I have 15 month old and my husband is a stay at home dad. I'm just wondering if this is the "right time", but honestly, now that I have a child I don't think there ever is going to be the right time. Anyway, just wondering how working mom's do this!!! I would love to hear some of your experiences/challenges/regrets, etc. I have a decent job, 9-5 type job, flexible, so not sure why I want to leave it, but I also think 12 hour night shifts will allow me to have more time w/ my little one when she starts school.

Thanks!
