This is 4 yr ago. But i want to take inspiration as i am from horticulture department. And now i am ist year.

Such a inspiring video. I truly appreciate it❤.

How u trust day care... Do they take care nicely.. Is ur daughter happy there???

I am about to start my PhD soon. I was not sure if I would be able to start a family during my studies. Watching your video is really inspiring. Loved every moment,especially baby ❤ and you playing the rattle..it was soooo cute...stay blessed

I need this! I have an infant going into my program 😅 but this made me feel better

Great content and subscribed! Would love hear what you think of our grad school channel. Thanks!

OMG! I'm so happy for you girl!!🎉 how's your baby girl? Mine is 4yo now 😅🤭 good luck in this new phase of your life 💐

You're amazing, thanks for making this video!

You are a superrrr lady !!! I will be in a similar situation soon!!!! Pray for me

Can PhD be done with having a baby (03 months) and what are the possibility of getting funding???

All the best 😍😍😍

I’d love to hear about what your responsibilities were as adjunct! I’m a philosophy PhD student right now.

Cool! I'm in year 3 of a PhD project and becoming a dad soon :D Good luck, and nice to meet you!

Hi, I am about to start my second year in my masters program after having a baby. How did you manage through sleep regression‘s and lack of sleep?

Do you go to TAMU college station? I went to TAMU. I am considering having baby during my PhD. wonder if you could talk

Welcome back ✌🤩😍❤

I just found your channel not too long ago. I have a 14 month old son and just got into a PhD literature program. I'm an older student (36) so I lover hearing other moms talk about their academic experience. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for sharing. I would love an update!

Hi, so happy to have found a fellow Phd student x mum. I see that you have not uploaded in a while. Hope everything is OK. Hang in there!

😀 nice...you did great, make an update video please

Thank you very much for sharing! Do you guys have any tips about studying for the exams w/ a toddler! Thank you :)

You are awesome 😍 keep it up

nice office! please post more videos

Can I have my first kid in my second or third year of PhD? I do 9 hours for 6 days a week, and my husband is also doing PhD, I'm not sure and I wish someone tell me a good advise

Which stream is yours dear?

Is it possible to have a child mid PhD without a lot of help from family or spouse and still be able to finish it on time?

How old are you?

Thank you for sharing! I'll be writing my thesis next semester for my Masters, due in March and entering my PhD in the Fall of 2021. Your videos make me feel a whole lot better. I've been looking high and low for women with newborns in PhD programs!

Its great that you got this far! good job!

You are awesome! You are doing great in an unprecedent pandemic rising a baby and taking care of your husband and yourself as good as it is possible!!

Good luck on your next exam! I’m prepping for my qualifying exams now, but yours sound way more stressful! For ours (biomedical engineering) we write a NIH style grant proposal of our work, and then also do an oral presentation of that with Q+A from the committee.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us!

Hello.. I'm also PhD Mom, during lockdown I can't manage well my time to study my subjet and beeing teacher of my children. Yes you are right I haven't time, during lockdown. Unfortunatelly, I haven't advisor, and my supervisor doubt my capability to doing my PhD and stopped the topic, honestly its make me devastated. But, In this summer I will starting again My PhD in another university, hope I find the supervisor understand the life PhD Mom be succesfull, and I'm happy my scholarship still support of me. Yes, I agree with you mother is still mother always miss they children if they children is far away from you, it not easier but we must strunggle. Thank you for sharing..

Thank you so much for sharing. I am just starting my PhD (also in STEM) at 30 years old and I’m feeling really guilty about postponing starting our family. This gives me hope that maybe we won’t need to wait till I’m actually done.

Gracias por el video! Te sigo hace tiempo... Estoy igual que tu haciendo phd con niño de casi 3 en lockdown. Ambos con mi marido hacemos teletrabajo. He tenido muy bajo rendimiento. Me podrias describir como era tu horario? Incluyendo limpiar, cocinar, cuidar a tu hija, tiempo en pareja y trabajo? Este es mi correo aylluu@gmail.com.

Thanks for making this video! It’s reassuring to hear that you would do this all over again if you had to chose:) I’m starting my 3rd year in the Fall, applying for the F31 in a couple of weeks, and then doing my Research Proposal a few weeks after that. So the plan is to start trying after the proposal:) I’ve had this feeling inside me for months now, just like I’m ready to be a mom. My husband will be a great dad, I’m so excited to see that too. Our families are super excited for us to have a child, but I’m struggling with my own doubts, because the very analytical, planning side of me is trying to make sure we’re ready in every aspect. And just knowing that it will make everything so much more complicated is a hard thought to reconcile. I appreciate your thoughts on this, someone in a similar position in terms of school/work, thank you! And like you said this will all be so much harder if I’m a fresh graduate trying to find a job and starting a family at the same time. My husband and I are both ready emotionally, and my mom keeps telling me to ‘just do it!’ like I’m a Nike athlete haha. Anyways, good luck on your exams!

So inspiring , well done Boss lady

This is inspiring. I'm in my second year of my PhD program and I'm thinking of starting to try to conceive my third year but still deciding whether it's the right time.

Heads up, you're doing great! Of course there are sacrifices to make, you cannot take care of a child and do a PhD and be ALONE in this! It's amazing that the dad is so involved, thumbs up for him! Cuz this a time when you really need support. You already have enough pressure from the PhD, you don't need more from your family/husband. For sure the PhD will play off well in the long run, because it's a period full of valuable lessons. You get to learn so much not only on academic matters, but also on yourself and how to balance everything. It's also normal to have doubts, but I hope you'll get all the support and understanding so that you can overcome this! And thanks for giving such intimate insights, even on these least pleasant things!

Thank you lots for these insights! I'm impressed with your day routine, it's so organized and seems that you have time for everything, HATS OFF for that! I was also wondering if you have the possibility to take maternity leave, what are its conditions and how long does it last. Maybe you could do a video on that :) PS. Your daughter is adorable!!!

I am also a PhD mom. Good to find another PhD mom :) thanks for the video

How is your baby? Once I've tried putting my child in a daycare and stayed there in another room to work in my essay but he started crying and the babysitter didn't care about that, even she didn't try to calm down my baby. It was so heartbreaking I couldn't continue working.

As a PhD mom, i advice you to never think of years ahead, live for this day, do your best, were all under pressure bt this is what were meant to do. You may influence your kid, my dad finished his PhD and made me know nothing comes easily, the greater you want to reach the harder things will get

Estoy pasando por algo similar. Es mi último semestre del pregrado (bachelor degree) y estas últimas semanas estoy fuera casi todo el día. Siento mucha presión y no sé si estoy haciendo lo correcto.

Hola. Quería preguntarte qué opinas de la crianza respetuosa o attachment parenting?

I’m also a graduate student ! Thank you for this video. It’s really hard to find someone in my area going thorough motherhood, grad school and balancing that out. I work on top of these things. I’m doing a master’s though. I hope you keep making videos. It would be so nice to have a group support for all grad school moms :) You’re doing great and keep it up!

What phase of your PhD are you in? I’m also a PhD mom of 2 toddler and a part time nursing student at another school

Don’t feel guilt hun this will all pay off at the end! This is your life too! Don’t live your life with regrets! P.S. another PhD mom

Just watched all ur videos u r awesome. I am looking for tips as I am mom of two doing PhD
