worried and scared.

I’m newly married and newly pregnant…I know God is the best of planners, but I’m just worried because I had plans to get my PhD while my husband got his MBA and this sort of changes everything.

Is it possible to be in grad school while raising a child? Do you know any parents who have done this? I just need assurance that my life is not necessarily coming to an end :frowning:

Re: worried and scared.

i'm in the same boat!! i just recently got married and moved to a new state...after months and months of searching i finally found a job and also was accepted to an awesome phd program. of course so much good news had to come with this last piece of good news within a month and now i'll be devastated if i don't find a way to do all of it at once. i'm hoping to have my mom start living with me once school starts and it may make things easier to handle.

Re: worried and scared.

i'm sure its possible, ladies. i know the uni i went to had an on-site daycare so continuing education and grad school mom's could drop their kids off and still go to classes. it might not be the easiest route you are determined to make it through, i don't see why you shouldn't be able to! good luck! :)
