    My wife has been pretty good. She knows what to expect and therefore we get her food craving stuff before we go to sleep. Mostly it has been milk.

    Seconded. You'll need it.
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    “Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    Oooh, I just cannot wait... That will be good fun! I suggest moving near relatives, as they are the only people who will ever look after your child if you feel you need to "get back on the horse" so to speak. Many of my siblings have dumped their children off on me and my wife. I cannot stress enough, be close to family!

    well... I don't have much of a Family left on my side, we're too scattered and theres still some wounds that haven't been healed.

    My Girlfriend (Fiancee's) Family however, is a bit more supportive, although the father is ummm... well not very happy about it. Child being born out of wed-lock, both of us not being very religious. But I still think at least they care... unlike certain people in my family I will not discuss. But its okay, because I'm unofficially retired at the old age of 22, and have the means to take care of them, and my future wife.

    With your studies make sure you contact your faculty and explain the situation. If you tell them ahead of time before failing for attendance, compromises/exemptions/special tutorials or just a freeze on units can be done.
    Our genes maybe in the basement but it does not stop us chosing our point of view from the top.
