[quote=Anonymous]OP, I don't know why people are being so nasty to you. I think you just have to decide what kind of life you want. Three kids is more work than two. If you have three, it is much less likely that you will go back for the NP degree, and more likely you will scale out of nursing completely, or work a day or two a week. You will be busy managing your kids' lives. If you have two kids and get the NP, your life will ultimately be calmer -- fewer kids to care for, more $$, and more prestige/ability to make demands about your work schedule. If you really want that third kid, do it! But do it knowing the career control/advancement might not come. If you want to work as an NP, have extra $$ for some help with kids, etc., and go to only 2 soccer games on Saturdays instead of 3, go get the degree and be sure your birth control is reliable.[/quote]
