Yes!!!
Last year this time I was in hospital trying to recover from the damages Pre-eclampsia did to my body and I had yet to see baby Becca because I was put in the intensive care unit where babies are not allowed!

It's funny how fast time really goes - how can we have such old kids already?! :) I remember very well when I was pregnant and when I heard you're pregnant... and now our kids are not even babies anymore. Huh!

Good luck with jobhunting! I know how you feel, I didn't have a job where to return after the maternity leave either and I didn't really know what I wanted to do. Luckily I realized how much I wanted to become a nurse and applied for schools and got accepted - otherwise I don't know what I would have done. At least I would have been very stressed out because with my previous education (master of arts, major being history) finding a good job is not the easiest thing ever. Of course money is the problem when you study, but I get unemployment benefit of two years. The school lasts 3,5 years so it will be quite tough after these two years but I've already now been asked to work so I think it won't be difficult to find a part-time job later. Nurses are needed very badly and even students are wanted very much. Well, the problem is that I don't know how much I can work AND study at the same time, I also want to enjoy the company of my daughter. But we'll see, I shouldn't stress about it NOW.

Aww Tiina! I know, it's incredible how things change so quickly! I also think about last year and a half and can hardly realize life is so totally different now!
As for job/study! I would love to go back to school but here u don't get unemployment benefits (unless u get fired) and moms don't receive any help from the Government. So I really need to plan things out very wisely!
I think you made the right decision plus it's a very important field the one you chose! I really don't know what I'll do ...sure thing I will not get another job where all I do is sitting to work at a computer. Lol
