[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You've only been an NP for a year.  That will be problematic for you if you SAH then go back after some years.  Pretty much any other applicant is going to be considered before you.  Even a new grad, because they likely also have worked as an RN for some yrs and have all their academic and clinical training fresh in their brain.  You will be left with a weak resume and no recent experience.

You will be much better off keeping your foot in the door in some way.  Either work as an NP part time or if there is a university near you with a nursing program, consider teaching.  Teaching one class or a skills lab will require little time but still keep your resume from looking quite so bleak.

OP did say she was working as a nurse through her NP program. That means she worked as a nurse for 2-3 years and she was an NP 1.5 years before getting pregnant. I think she should do part-time too. I don't think you can teach aa class unless you a doctorate of nursing. [/quote]

I don’t think it was 1.5 years before pregnant. She worked 1.5 years working before she had the baby.

OP said she was trying to get pregnant for a while so she must have been trying to get pregnant while in NP school.

Sounds like she met her DH while she was a nurse and went to NP school after she got married and tried to get pregnant in NP school but it took longer than she anticipated.[/quote]
