My husband and I are full time students, and it appears we will be for a long time. When we got married (as students as well), people told us that marriage would pull our studies down, or our studies would put stress on our marriage etc. basically that we couldnt or at least shouldnt get married while in school. Well, we got married anyway and discovered that our studies have improved and we continue developed a strong marriage. We found that, despite the warnings (mostly of people who hadn't done it themselves), marriage and school are extremely compatible!
Now that we have been married a few years, we are starting to think about having kids, but are wondering how that would work while we are in school. I realize that the changes involved with having children are much different than getting married. For instance, I couldnt tell a hungry baby to hold on for 30 minutes while I finish proof reading my assignment. But I still think we could make it work.
Are there any parents here that are students, were once student parents or have friends/family that are students parents? If so, I would love to hear of your experience.
