Has anyone gone back to school immediately after having a baby? I was thinking of taking 2 online courses in the Fall and I’m due mid August. This will be my second child but first boy, my daughter is 5 and will be starting first grade next school year. I don’t plan on going back to work within the first year, at least, and I’m thinking I’ll have plenty of time on my hands so why not knock out a couple courses? My mom was on board at first until she remembered that I’m due in August and doesn’t think it’ll be a good idea.
