Would it be too much to start grad school with a newborn?


We recently found out my wife is pregnant with our first child & are we're both very excited. Career-wise I have always had an interest in going back to college for a graduate degree and right now I'm working for a company that will pay for it (which seems to be very rare these days). I'd like to get started in the winter or spring semester of next year, and I'm expecting I'd be doing this over the course of 3 years. It would be entirely online.However, with a newborn on the way next spring, I'm afraid I will be biting off more than I can chew. Obviously I could always wait, but I'm not really sure how long I will be at this company, meaning I don't necessarily want to start grad school in two years (for example) and then I'm kind of stuck there for 3 more years.What are your thoughts on this? Has anyone attempted grad school with a newborn? Am I being crazy for even considering this? Thanks via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2HR5s5g
