Because I spent more time here on the boards when I was "studying" than with my bar materials I figured I should share with you all!
Woohoo! Since I was 34 weeks pregnant when taking the exam, I think Gracie should have a special dispensation to practice law--what do you think??
Well, I am going to go drink some more champagne now!

CONGRATS!!!!
That's so awesome. I can't imagine studying for the bar exam and having the brain power and attention span to take the exam. I was pretty scatter-brained towards the end of my pregnancy.
Cheers!

That's so great Anna! Wow, I took the CBEST (Ca. Basic Educational Skills Test - for teaching) at 6 months pregnant, and I did well, but definitely did not feel like myself. I am so impressed with your mental fortitude at 34 weeks!

Oh Anna...I'm SOO happy for you. I know how tough it is and what a huge accomplishment (and relief!) that is! Congratulations!!
Having the the mental fortitude at 34 weeks is impressive in and of itself, but how in the heck did you have the bladder fortitude? I almost took the Patent Bar right around 34 weeks but didn't feel mentally up to it. I just took it last week and afterwards knew that there's NO WAY I could have taken it while pregnant. It's such a freakin' time crunch that there would be no time for the many pee breaks necessary. Honestly, I don't know how you did it mentally or otherwise...but again CONGRATS!!!
Awsome congratulations!!!!!! Go celebrate big time!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!! Not only is it impressive that you did so well while being on these boards, but I'm even more impressed that all your brain cells weren't fried while being pregnant. While I was pregnant, I felt like I lacked all focus and mental clarity, so I really hand it to you for passing the bar while being so pregnant! Way to go!

Oh Anna!
That's such WONDERFUL news!!!
I think that the combo passing the bar/having a baby triumph calls for some new jewelry from your DH!! ;) ;)
Congratulations!

Congratulations! I am really impressed! At 34 weeks I was so deep into placenta-brain that I couldn't complete a shopping list. Way to go--you should be very very proud!!

Congratulations!! Which state?
I took the Maryland bar when I was about 17 -18 weeks pregnant (don't quite remember) - the pregnancy nausea did NOT improve the experience in any way!

Congrats Anna! I had zero brain at the end of all my pregnancies so you should be especially proud taking the bar at 34 weeks!
