Hello.

I'm Samantha. I'm 20 years old. I'm from Alaska, and as the title implies, I am a preggopotomous. :p At least that's what my husband calls it!

I have a almost-two-year-old daughter, and am expecting a baby boy on Mother's day of 2009. I am VERY excited for the new addition, and I cannot wait to meet him!

I've been married for two years as of this April, and I couldn't be loving the married life any more than I already do!

I am currently pursuing an Associate's of Arts transfer degree, in order to be admitted to the A.A.S. Nursing program at the community college here. There's really only one college here, so I have to go about getting into the nursing program in a less-than-typical way.

After I complete the A.A.S program, I plan on doing the BSN bridge program. And from there? I will decide whether or not to go to midwifery school to become a CNM, or a medical school to become an OB. I really don't know.

But hey, I have all A's right now! And having a toddler, being pregnant, and taking 15 credits, that's not easy to do!

I also have my own blog/website if anyone is interested in taking a peek. AnotherTeenMom.com

Welcome to the site, Samantha! It's nice to know you've done so well thus far.

I would say go on for the midwife course. Another one of our members, Cassioo, is an OB nurse, so you two will have lots to talk about. She often pops in the Daily Thread, so I hope you join us there when you can.

Of course, look around the other Forums, and post when you are able. We do have a Student Forum.... When do you graduate?

Welcome, Samantha! Your son may just end up like me....an early Mother's day present. I showed up 2 days before....AND Mother's Day fell on the 10th that year, too.

I hope to see you often, also. I agree the midwife bit sounds like a good idea, also.

I'm really not sure what I'll do. I just decided that I will play it by ear, and make the final decision close to when I will be finishing my BSN. Not much else to do. I just don't know if I'd rather be a doctor or a midwife.

Topnurse. Samanthaw's opinions and believes are that of her own. We will not tolerate flaming on this forum in any way shape or form. Therefore, I will ask you nicely to refrain from hostile posts. Samantha has joined us on UltimateNurse.com with an interest in nursing, and as far as I can see--she has in no way violated our forum rules, nor has she tried to push her beliefs on any other member, just as we would never try to push our beliefs on her or any of you. Whether or not she runs a Pro-Ana site is her business. Of course as nurses, we do not endorse such high risk behaviour, but--as I said before; she has not came on our forum pushing those beliefs.


Side Note @ TopNurse:

Failure to comply with our flaming policy will result in administrative action. For the time being, I am removing your 2 posts.

Regards,
