I start my next semester in college tomorrow!!im,so excited,I'm in a culinary program, anyway I thoought this semester ended like my kids and get out in Aug,nope I get out on 5/22 woohoo I get the last six weeks of my pregnancy off which rocks. But my question is my baby will be about 6-7 weeks old when the next semester starts and I want to breast feed do you ladies think I should take the next semester off?

It really depends on how you're feeling. My school has a lactation room so new moms can pump and keep up with stuff like that. I'm in my final semester (FINALLY) and am due 3 wks before graduation.just gotta do what works for us ma, good luck!!

I have a similar situation. My baby is due a week before my quarter ends, during finals, then the next quarter starts 3weeks later. I'm going to power through my finals, then take a quarter off. This is my first baby andi really want to enjoy her

If you don't feel comfortable with it then skip a semester. But if you have a mom or mil that could watch the baby then why not? But if you don't have someone you trust completely then don't.

Yeah Im going to I just am nit sure if I should leave the baby that early. I have three lids I went back to work with my first two when they were about two months. So I guess its not that different. With my third I was a stay at home mom so its been awail since I've had to leave a baby with someone.

Get a pump. And you can still go to school and feed the baby.
