Anyone in graduate school?

Question

I'm looking at getting my masters online. Only 5.5 so wondering if anyone did this while pregnant and continued when they had a newborn. (Working flexible hours while pregnant then being a stay at home mom after)

Answer

I have 3 more classes til I get my masters from Boston University online. I'll graduate in December and have this little one Jan/Feb. I work full time and travel a lot as well so I'm all over the place and on 3 diff time zones. It's def doable but I'm SO glad I'll be done by the time baby comes. 
Good on you for those ambitions - where there's a will there is always a way!

Answer

I graduated with my masters at 33 weeks pregnant. Im not sure how difficult it'll be online but I'm sure since you won't have to commute you'll be fine.

I had to drive 45 minutes to/from campus 4 days a week. I had a full schedule of classes (9 credits) plus I had to do an internship, 16 hours a week.

In regards to coursework, some classes vary. Some classes I had homework due every week, other classes I had work due every other day (discussion boards, quizzes, tests). I wouldn't say you get a lot of assignments, but rather it takes A LOT of time to complete assignments. Plan ahead, plan ahead, plan ahead!

The most difficult part was trying to manage my time to complete assignments and go to class when all I wanted to do was sleep! I was sooo exhausted. The fact I had to limit caffeine due to the pregnancy didn't help either.

But I did it, and so can you!! :)
