Tips for studying with a newborn?

Question

I have an exam to take 6 weeks after my baby is expected to arrive! Just wondering if anyone has been in a similar situation. How did it go? Do you have any tips?
I am terrified but determined to do this! I have great support with my husband and family!

Answer

I haven’t done it but my advice to you is to sleep when the newborn is sleeping because if you don’t and you just stay up and study until YOU get tired, then baby may be up and active. That’s putting you and especially the baby at risk. Exhaustion is real just taking care of a newborn so I couldn’t even imagine trying to study on top of that and trying to heal and sleep and wash bottles and change diapers WHEW I’m tired just thinking about it! But on a serious note don’t do anything that may put yu and baby at risk. I was exhausted beyond belief when I had my first child. I was too proud to ask for help and ended up falling asleep while warming up the baby bottle on the stove at 3am. The smoke alarm went off in the ENTIRE apartment building. One of the neighbors in the building called the fire Dept and they had to come and walk through my apartment with big dirty clunky boots to make sure my apt didn’t burn down. It was the most embarrassing reality check I’ve ever had! Don’t be like me. Whatever you do just be safe and don’t be afraid to ask for help.
