Pregnant, and starting LPN cles in August...question about maternity leave?

I'm currently 14 weeks pregnant, and am starting college in August to get my LPN license. Although the baby wasn't planned, I'm extremely happy and I still fully intend to go to college. (I'm 18 btw) I haven't had my first ultrasound yet. (It's on the 19th of this month) and I should get an accurate due date by then. My EDD as of now in January 17th. The problem is, the program has a strict absentee policy. If you miss more than 5 days, no matter what the cirstance, you get kicked out. I already talked to my instructor and she won't make an exception because I'm pregnant. I'm hoping and praying that my EDD is sometime in December, since there is a month long break from Dec 9th to Jan 9th. My question is, is there, legally, any way to take maternity leave and not get kicked out of the program? It has me so stressed out! I want what is best for my baby, and going to college is best! I'm really worried about needing more than 5 days off to have the baby, especially since my doctor said since I'm so little I may have to have a c-section if the baby is too big...I guess I just need some reurance and advice. :(
