Long story short, I graduated in 2025 and completed about 6 months of a residency program before leaving. I’ve always wanted to give residency another try, so I finally worked up the courage to apply for Phase II this year, but unfortunately, I didn’t match.

Now a couple of scramble programs have reached out, but I’m unsure if they’re strong programs or worth pursuing to get back into residency. On top of that, I recently found out I’m pregnant, will give birth in December or January.

Has anyone gone through residency while pregnant or with a newborn? I feel torn because I don’t want to lose more time, but my long-term goal is still to complete residency and work as a clinical pharmacist in a hospital setting.
