hi Shilpi,

I too have a 2-yr-old. I guess atleast you have completed you boards, I havent yet. It is very tough to study much. How did you manage?

hey i know how it is i have a 1 yr old and i have an 80 in my part 1
i am planning to give it again
God knows how i shall manage
if u get into a school day care or sending your precious one back home are the only options
i am choosing the first though can't get myself to send her so far away
all the best to u

hi som
yeah no doubt diificult to manage but still u can find time when your baby is asleep ....u can figure out ,but the one thing which was difficult though normally everypone gives part 2 in a couple of weeks of intense study it took me a couple of months....

Hi,
I have a one year old and I have gotten into a number of schools but still I cannot bring myself to join one as I don't know how I will manage. Anybody who has managed dental school with a baby.

I know that most people send their baby to India and some send them to day care. I know one person who has completed from BU and she sent her baby to daycare.b

Hello shilpi!
I have 18 months old baby and I think it was the best decision I?ve ever made. I mean to have a baby before I get to program. It would be too complicated get pregnant during school and after graduation you should think about your career and about your loan. I was lucky because I took board a couple of month after my baby was borne, so I have plenty of time to prepare before my little boss was born. And my husband and my mom really help me a lot. I?ve already applied to NYU and start studying for NDB2 (when my baby asleep or even during her playtime). It?s not easy, but who said that motherhood would be easy, especially when you want something more from life but only be a mother.
If I get I thinking about a baby-sitter or day care

delfina....u know sometimes it takes almost 8pm to be out of the school its not possible for any day care to keep the baby for so long....baby sitters are ok but its hard to trust anyone and they are expensive too....

 

[delfina]

shilpi.... I have someone who can help me with the baby, my hasband, in-lows so with a baby-sitter i'll hope it's gonna work.

Shilpi, are you already in school or only applyed? And I think with 2 boards in a pocket you don't need too much worred about.

 

[shilpi]

thats nice delfina if u got help....then there is nothing to worry about....i have only applied so far and have a bunch of rejections with me nothing else i've got
