School with a 5 month old

Starting at a new school is scary but starting at a new school with a baby was even scarier. I went back to school when my daughter was 5 months old. I was so excited to go back to school and make friends and be able to have some sort of a social life because since having my daughter I lost all my friends. So my first day came around and I was shit scared, I traveled 1.5 hours to and from school every day, as I walked into the school gates I felt like everyone was looking at me not only being the new kid but also having a baby. I settled her into the child care centre they had onsite, I had a little cry and set off to class eeekkkk. While In class I got asked a few questions but no one judged majority of these kids were more curious than anything, I was always the first to tell them what they wanted to know. I ended up back in the child care a few times that day, you miss them like crazy. She loved her first day wasn't really to bothered that I was missing LOL. The thing I struggled with the most was the early mornings,home work,surviving on hardly any sleep and the travelling. Everyday was a struggle but I continued because I wanted to get somewhere in life and not be like the rest of my family. The biggest downside to all of this was the staring and smart remarks I'd get from strangers, some lady even called me a waste of space because I was in a school uniform and prushing a pram with a baby in it, so many people who i would catch staring at me id tell them to just ask me what they are thinking, I'd prefer to answer them then to be stare at me. Once I got use to it all I learnt how to block it all out and just continue being the best mum ever. The last year of my schooling was the best year I have ever had and that was because I had my daughter by my side and made me want to do the best I could.
