I started a Masters (part time) the year my daughter was born and it was easier that year while I was on maternity leave than when I went back to full time work+study+1 year old!!! would never have managed without supportive husband/family. I obviously haven't learnt my lesson, because I am starting a PhD in Feb and planning on TTC around Jan!!!! My only tip is BE REALLY REALLY ORGANISED and whenever you cook, cook double and freeze!
