OwlCat wrote:Just another mom story here. I have a 7 year old and a 2 year old. Just finished my last exam a few weeks ago. It took me 4.5 years, and of course had the 2 year old in course of that, but I'm done now and thrilled! You will get there! Won't be easy, but you will! I chose not to do any exams while pregnant, but many women deal with pregnancy better than I do. Good luck.

I will be home for 12 weeks, alone with baby for about 8 hours (+/-) a day. Hoping this one sleeps better than my first did, but I'm hoping I can get through studying when I'm not sleeping!

Hubby is an architect too, so both of us studying for exams with babies and or kids was a challenge, but we made it. A supportive spouse is huge. I would try to study for one day on the weekend, while hubby took the kid(s). Make sure to apply for the extension as Coach suggested, it gave me an extra year, which I needed every bit of. I started studying towards the end of my work day, before picking up the kids. There were times when I was pregnant that I was just too tired to study. I also applied for a medical break to pump as I tested a few months after my second child was born. Every little bit helps. Just remember you can do it, even if it takes a little longer. Structures took me seven tries, but I finally passed. You got this!
