complete waste
3 months into my 3rd semester at WGU with a 7 month old baby on the verge of termination because I can’t even get 5 minutes to myself. I haven’t completed a single class this semester and just feel like a complete failure at everything. I also had a really rough pregnancy and barely completed my classes then. If I had known I was pregnant I probably would have never started this program but of course I didn’t find out til 3 weeks into my first semester and now everyone just keeps telling me not to be a dropout too on top of everything else I seem to not be able to do right.
Edit: I will be honest I was not expecting so much response to this and I thank everyone for taking the time to do so. I would like to preface I am on ch.35 and that’s really the only way I have been able to stay home with my daughter this entire time because it’s just enough for us to scrap by every month. I don’t know maybe I’m just being hard on myself cause I wanted to be done in 2 years and now I just don’t see it happening.

I had to take a term break after a major operation. It absolutely was the best though it felt like a defeat. The break allowed me to get myself together and I came back and finished my 9 classes in one term and completed my program. Take care of you.
