Hello! Hope you are fine. Well my question is that..
I am currently pregnant and is due in early July this year, the thing is that I want to know if I can have any holiday from school for that period. Or is there any immigration procedures? I'll be on my 1st semester break in late June for 2 weeks I reckon. What should I do? I'll be a 1st time mom and is a bit worried about this issue. Last time I went to the student service, they told me that I can have to weeks off after the delivery or take 1 semester off, but in my case 2 weeks is not enough as I'll breastfeed my baby and 1 semester is too long. Any type of help will be highly appreciated.
Thanking you
Kind regards

Are you a graduate student or undergrad? Would it be possible to take fewer classes or, if that will effect your student status, perhaps online classes that next semester?
