Should I get my degree before having a baby?
My husband and I want to start our family in 2/3 years.
I was planning on returning to university next year to finish my Psych degree, it will take me three years to complete this.
I am wondering if it is worth it, when I attend on having a baby and staying home for a few years, while the baby is growing up.
My husband and I want to buy a house next year, although he earns good money it would be alot easier for us if I stay in my admin role.. but I don't want to be a receptionist for the rest of my life!
BTW I am 23 this year

It always comes down to what is best for you. Would you rather have a baby and take some time off during school, or right when you jump into a new career? You can always take a semester off with school, the job field isn't so nice when it comes to maternity leave despite what people think. Sure, they have to let you take leave, but they don't have to promise that you won't miss out on promotion opportunities.
