Starting College While Pregnant. Is It Possible

Starting falconry while in college?

nope you can't keep it in you're dorm cause it needs an aviary...first things first b4 you can even get a bird you need to take a test thats 120 questions long and have the proper place to keep the bird (they will send an inspector) and then after all thats done you do a 2 year sponsorship program with one of you're local falconers.then you can finally trap your own bird(usually only 2 types) then you have to report every month for 2 years i believe it didnt specify when you report to the fish and wildlife then after that you can become a general falconer and get more types of birds ...but when its all said and done you will have a falcon or hawk of choice to train to do whatever as long as its ok with the guys over at fish and wildlife.or it might be the DNR not fish and wildlife.....im also looking to become a falconer.

Getting pregnant last year of college?

I'm 27, married,in my last year of college and have an 11 month old little girl and am 18 weeks pregnant with #2. Its really not that hard :) Just take good notes because pregnancy brain can make you a bit more forgetful. We wanted to start our family as well, and I also wanted to finish my education. I didn't see any reason not to do both. There is no reason you cant either! I would say start trying. The last 2-3 months are the only hard parts ( the desks start to get real small towards the end!) but you will be done by that time and able to relax and concentrate on baby! Good Luck!!

I planned on starting college again in Jan, now I'm pregnant again, should i still go?

I have a phlebotomy certificate from college, but i never found a job in my area, and i wanted to go back to college to further my education, but now i'm pregnant again (6wks) should i still go back in Jan.?

I also have a 10 month old, and a VERY supportive husband.
I am currently unemployed, so i wont have to worry about juggling a job too.

Should I attend College while Pregnant? If yes.. any suggestions?

10 years ago I was in the same boat. GO TO SCHOOL! My biggest recommendation: bring a seat cushion, you're gonna get physically uncomfortable in class. I took the semester off that I had my son & went right back the next semester. I breast-fed, so it worked better for me personally. I also know girls who took a week off to have the baby and go right back. That is a personal decision you will have to make. Talk to your financial advisors and your nursing advisors, let them know your situation and they will help you with options. A lot of states help with child care for single mothers in college, you will be suprised at how many scholarships and grants are now available to you. I went to nursing school and finished, and am now going back for my BSN. Best wishes to you and good luck on your journey! Remember...this is the turning point in your life that will allow you to care for yourself and your child without compromise.

18 and pregnant can i still go to college and be successful?

YES! You can. There are so many resources available to you! With a dependent, you will get college funds that are equal to all of your tuition and board. Some universities have dorms that are accommodating to families, too! Larger universities also offer free, prorated, or low-cost child care available to students and staff/faculty. Class is nothing like high school. If you are taking 12 (full-time) hours, you'll be in class probably 3-4 hours a day, 5 days a week. You can do work-study on campus, if you choose.

You can also take advantage of some of the accredited online classes that universities offer. For-profit universities (like University of Phoenix) aren't really the greatest resource, but most public universities are creating online programs to accommodate public demand.

Nursing school is difficult, but you can do it! You'll get plenty of funding. Your partner can do his classes online, as well. If you are married, two family members in-school will get you lots of grant money. My husband and I are both in college, right now, and we have 4 children under 5! I'm 28 yrs old, and a SAHM. He works about 60hrs per week. Our income is relatively high and we get pell grants that help considerably with expenses. The rest of the education is covered by loans, which will be difficult after we graduate, but its better in the long-run.

Nurses make GOOD money! Plus, they are in high demand. Do it. You won't regret it. There are too many resources available to give up! Get with a financial advisor at your college or university that you've chosen. They can help you get this started.

Good luck to you!

Married pregnant college student... what do you think?

It sounds like a very frantic life you have carved out.

You will not have time to enjoy either your schooling, or your children... sad on both ends.

School is fun, and wonderful, and lovely to have time to chat over coffee with profs, and join discussions groups simply because you have time. All you'll be doing is trying to cram for deadlines.

And lolling with your baby, watching it as it grows, and follow its progression are times that cannot be repeated....

You'll be missing the best part of both...and you won't even be aware of it. sad for you and your personal growth, sad for your child to not have you both see his progression...

You may be smart, but you blew this one.

It will be one huge scramble to stay up with stresses on both your emotions, and your finances.
Sorry to put rain on your parade. You'll see the rain when you get there.............then again, maybe you won't, and be ignorance of what you missed.

Sometimes "ignorance is indeed bliss...."

You asked.

19 year old college student and pregnant! what to do?

If you're not sure about the abortion, you should not get it. Listen, everyone will always have an opinion on things, but they won't have to be the ones to deal with the anguish and guilt afterwards. You will. So screw what the rest tells you. You look into your heart, and if you go get that abortion, you better make damn sure that is exactly what you want because in this kind of thing, if you do it without being determined, you will regret it so much later, the damage will be so huge that you'll end up stuck, while everyone else is moving on.

I'm 18 years old, a freshman in college, pregnant, scared and confused,?

Honey, at 18 you are not ready for a child. A child is a huge responsibility and it will change everything about your life forever.

He is telling you that he is not ready to be a father. He could not be more clear about that. There are thousands of married couples who are dying for a child, but for one reason or another can not conceive. I know it's hard, but I suggest an open adoption.

You are not prepared to give a child all it deserves. There are no guarantees that your boyfriend will stick around, especially since he is being honest about parenting. Being a single mother is extremely difficult, even with help from family. If you don't want to live with your family, you will be living in poverty, no doubt about it.

I will say it one last time. He is being honest with you about parenting. He is telling you that he is not ready. Do you hear me? HE IS TELLING YOU THAT HE IS NOT READY!! He will eventually resent you and ultimately leave you. Guaranteed.

** Oh, you are financially stable 18 year old college student living in a dorm with a high school boyfriend? Financially secure means you have a home, a car, a steady good paying job, health insurance, no debt and savings. If you think you are financially secure at 18 then you are absolutely delusional about what it will take to care for a child. Sorry.

I’m currently a junior in college, when should I start looking for a job? How many months before I graduate? I’m majoring in marketing.

Now would be a good to start shopping around for a job. If you are strickly sticking with the job scenario after your graduations, then ask questions about your goals now.It's certainly OK to go after a job, but you need to line up your ducks first. Check out the type of industry that you would prefer online and get an idea or feel for the companies that are in the area. Call them up and ask for an interview discussing the company's motto or mission statement. You may even get a return call, and that manager can give you the scoop in a few minutes on what they're about and looking for in a good candidate. Always thank each person for his/her time.Also, get some mock interviews and résumé reviews scheduled, although this you can also do later as a Senior.A2A
