[beansmum]

Im a 3rd year maths student and single mum to bean, 22wks. Only been a student parent for 4 wks but it's hard! Can't imagine it's going to get any easier either but i'm sure it's worth it.

What is everyone else studying? Oh, and where? I'm at uni in edinburgh.

i have just started my MA in social work at manchester uni. i've got two children and, yes, i am finding it quite tough too!

Hello! I'm trying to finish my MA in medieval history in Cardiff. Have to hand my dissertation in in 6 weeks - ug. In fact, that's what I should be doing now. Damn MN But would much rather be blowing raspberries on ds.

am one year into dphil (hist of art) at sussex, but live in bristol + single mum to dd (16 months). chaos

Hello. Not sure I qualify for this thread, but I'm a distance learning student in hypnotherapy and psychoanalysis so no Uni to speak of but a student nevertheless. I have 2 stepchildren (16 and 15) and 3 children (10, 7 and 3 months). It's pretty hardgoing at times, but worth it I think.
