Anyone else waiting until after pregnanct to finish classes?

Question

I already have a B.S and A.A.S but I was finishing a few classes to be eligble to take the CPA exam. I only have 4 classes left and dont want to overload myself this summer or this fall (last trimester) does anyone think I should just wait until next spring to finish up? Anyone in a similar situation?

Answer

I am working on my masters.  I have 3 classes left.  I plan on taking 2 this summer and 1 next spring.  Baby arrives in the middle of the fall semester so I will take that semester off.

I have been working on my masters for a long time.  I started when my first was 18 months.  He is now 5 and his brother is 2.  There are definitely times being a parent to small kids, working and being a student is challenging.

Answer

I am finishing my doctorate. I don't want to stop now and risk my financial aid or have to put my program on hold.  I am about to go for my 2nd year residency with a baby bump.

Answer

I would try to take as many as I could during the summer sessions and see if there is an online option for the other classes. I actually just finished my 5th degree (yes, 5th. Hubby says I'm addicted to college) and it was online. At first, I wasn't a lover, but I found them pretty easy and very convenient. It won't be easy, but I think you can do it. Good luck!

Answer

I'm almost done with a BA in studio art. This spring is my last full semester and then I have one more class, which requires traveling out of state. I'm pretty sure that I will have to wait to take that class until after my baby is born because if I took it in the fall, all the traveling would be around 3-4 weeks before my due date. Don't want to risk clotting and whatnot... Not to mention having my baby out of state where my insurance doesn't apply. Aw well. My baby is soo worth pushing back graduation a few months :)

Answer

I had my first while in grad school. She was born during the summer between the two years. Once she arrived it was really difficult to get work done (my husband also traveled every week so that didn't help!). I recommend taking as many classes as you can before your baby is born..once that baby is here life is completely different! I have been trying to work on my portfolio for 3 years and just have not had time bc of my daughter! Good luck!

Answer

Answer

I'm in my first trimester and working on my masters. It's tough, but we can do it!💪

Answer

Honestly, I think it would be easier during your 3rd trimester than after the baby is born.

Answer

I had to take a Medical leave 3 weeks into the semester because I was so sick. I was suppose to graduate in May. It's so frustrating and upsetting but I gotta do what's best for baby. I'll start back up after baby comes
