School and twins?

Question

The twins aren’t born yet(very soon). I have my Associates but need to finish school, I’m halfway done with my Bachelors but now thinking of Nursing school. I need a couple prerequisites first and want to start those when the babies are born. 
My hubby is very supportive of taking care of the kids when he is home, so I can study at night. Am I crazy or should I wait until the babies are older?

Answer

My husband started college two months before our twins were born. He was 30 and using his GI Bill. It was chaotic at times, but honestly it’s always going to be chaotic, that’s what kids are lol! He graduated three years ago now with his bachelors and now has a career that allows me to stay home. I feel like if it’s what you want to do and you have the support then go for it! The craziness changes phases, but it doesn’t go away. Our twins are going to be seven now and it would be just as crazy if he started today.

Answer

You go for it hunny!!! I agree about the craziness phases changing from the previous post. The first 3-4 months with newborn twins is literally survival mode. I would recommend starting school while pregnant but taking those first few months off so you can focus on getting your twins on a nice routine/schedule so you can get back in to school mode. (If you can plan it that way) Also, stress will cause low amounts of breast milk to come in. I would recommend taking those first few months to focus on you and your new family. 
*personal experience: 
I was lucky enough to stay home for the first 14 months. Due to moving states I have to take a history course to get my official teaching certificate for AZ. My twins are at a good age now (14 months) for me to squeeze that 5wk online course in. They are still taking 2 naps a day for a consistent 1.5 each (sometimes longer) and they are great at independent play now. 
I definitely DON’T want to discourage you. I want you to be successful in this next chapter of your life. If you choose to keep moving forward with your courses I would suggest “easier” courses during those first few months as opposed to courses that you go back and teach yourself. Maybe do online at a community college then switch. 
GOOD🍀LUCK🍀MOMMA....the journey is WILD🤪FUN🥳and TOTALLY WORTH IT!
