hi. all

I am a single mom and my daughter is 6 months old.
How hard is pharmD program for student mom like me?

Any student mom here? Any advice for me?

Thank you in advance
 
You will be just fine...BUT you need a support system..do u have family member to take care of the baby when you need time to study? day care won't take care of everything..most people will tell u that they are able to make it..thanks to family support..I dont' wanna seem negatif..but the truth is that you need people around you to help you...I am married with a 13 month old baby..both are on and off in my life..because both live in canada..and when i have them with me..I know that i could not make it if my husband was not around...kids are very demanding in their toddler years..it is all about them..and they have a level of energy i have never seen before in my life!!!

if you have somebody to help at least a week before major exam..so that you you can study for long hours without interuption..and also what i do is to study troughout the semester..to minimize the stress and the cramming before major exams...

Overall, it is not bad...after exams ..nothing relaxes me more than playing with my son and/ or yelling "NO" at him all day long because it tries to break or destroy everything in the house lately...

Good luck....
