Pregnant & in school?

Anyone else in school while pregnant? I'm in my last year of college currently 22 weeks pregnant and so tired! It's so much work ahhh any other ladies here know how I'm feeling? I feel so giant because I have gained 20lbs (I was very skinny prior to pregnancy so the doctor says it's healthy). It's really stressful and there are days I just want to freeze time so I can nap. My little Oakley (boy) is so active that I get distracted feeling his kicks because I want to talk to him  when he's awake lol

I'm only 14&6 but I am back in school full time , and I know exactly what you mean. I recently also got a part time job to help with bills. So between school, assignments, taking care of my 5yo and work I am exhausted =\… on a good note I'm starting to get some energy back so I am hoping that helps.

I'm in my sophmore year but I couldn't do it ! Hw & assignments were draining me plus my professors weren't being lenient with me so either way I was going to be dropped and not allowed for a maternity leave. I miss it dearly!

Yes!!!! I know exactly what you mean. I'm a junior in college and waking up for classes is hard, doing assignments are draining me a little bit because I'm always sleepy and become so lazy lol. I also get distracted by my little guy he is so active and I love recording my belly. I'm 31weeks. I know school might get harder on me the closer I get to labor.

Possibly because we are women. My fiancee says that he doesn't know how I do it. There's a reason men don't carry the baby haha
