HELP PLEASE

I am a full time college student I got pregnant weeks ago and it's confirmed. Although I am very excited I don't have a job and I am currently in the process of moving out of my parents house. I'm finding it really hard to focus in school. My professor already told me if it's too much to handle I should drop my classes. Should I wait till my baby is born to go back to school or should I try to just continue till I can't?

Have your considered online classes? You can do them on your own time, that way you can get a job, work on moving out of your parents house, and continue to go to school. Even after the baby gets here you can still do the online on your own time.

I'm a full time college student as well and I'm 31 weeks + 4 days pregnant!! I decided to take my classes online this semester since my son is due in November!! But try to continue to go as long as you can!! But if it becomes too much then drop it because stress is not good for you or the baby!! And make sure you keep all of your teachers informed! Just in case you do have to miss a couple of days of class!

You should try to continue but if it's too much stress drop it because stress can harm your baby. I was going to school while I was pregnant but I had to drop out because I got kicked out of my house & got sick & missed too many days. The stress got too much to handle & your baby can pass away with stress.

I've just finished my second year of Uni when I had my son in November. I'm due to finish my 3rd and final year of university in may but I'm pregnant with my second child due in march! You will be fine. When the baby sleeps no matter how tired you may be just try and focus on your college work. And try to get help where you can. If someone offer to watch baby for an hour take it the help! As much as I hated having people look after my boy I knew that continuing my studies and passing was the best thing for my little family! If your baby is anything like my son he slept pretty much all day as a baby. I never had naps as I didn't feel the need to and I completed a lot of work. Another great tip is to ask a friend to record lessons on a Dictaphone for you! Then u don't miss out as much like my friend did for me. Good luck and congrats x

HANG IN THERE! I understand your struggle, I'm in the same boat. I'm 29weeks due December 4th & still attended summer classes & I'm even going in the fall. Worst part, my finals would be 2-5 days after my due date. But I know after the baby o's here it'll only get harder, so I'm sticking it out.
Good luck & congrats!

It's harder to go back to school with a little one than being pregnant and going.

Exactly what jocey_xoxo said try and go as much as you can. I was in the same boat. Alot was happening in my life at once and it became way too stressful i gave up and stopped going to school. Bad choice. I do plan on going back after my son is born but i know i just pushed myself even more behind then i originally was. Yet by all means if it's way too much stress, you can't focus and you're failing i would stop and focus on my body and my baby; my opinion it's way more important right now.

I'm currently in your situation did you talk to your parents about it maybe they'll help a little even though I'm pushing almost 3 months I really want my degree and my parents understand and decided to help out try asking and see :)

Try to continue until you can't ! It's hard but defiantly do as much as you can!!  Don't lose hope your still a few weeks I till you get to 20 weeks or until you feel that you can't do it anymore because you'll regret stoping early once baby is here it'll be hard

[jocey_xoxo]

Try to continue while u can im still in highschool and thats what im doing because when the baby is here ur gunna have even less time than u do now
