itll be tough, but youll manage!  

I don't work but I go to school full time-- I almost think it's worse than working because I have to do homework even after spending all day at school!

It's pretty hard, my husband and I do opposite schedules because we can't afford daycare. So I go to school during the day and he works at night.

I have been doing it for almost 2 years though!

I know and then Ill feel like I aint giving my kids enough attention

I'm not going to lie. It is hard, but you have to be devoted. I work full time at a hospital and sometimes at night. I am also in school working on my doctoral degree which is very hard work because of all of the papers that I have to do. I also have a daughter who just turned three months yesterday and I try to spend alot of time with her just besides nursing. I'm married and my husband took the night shift so I can get some sleep because nursing, especially in the beginning was difficult to get used to because you are always on demand. But there is a light at the end of the tunnel. She sleeps through the night now and I have learned to sleep when she does or do my work when she is asleep now that I can work from home. So a good tip. Sleep when baby does or do what you need to do when they are asleep.

yeah and my 5 year old daughther is hyperactive so i f I do get a break to do something she is up driving everyone nuts lol yeah I know Ill be okay just know Ill be exhausted all the time
