I follow this page cause I really need an income

You might want to consider medical coding! My husband does it and most of the jobs are work from home. You can get a certification for about 2k! Codersrx.com

The only option I've found that's doable for work is sales. Some options have fully remote, but it's all day on the phone, and that doesn't work with my kids. I'm starting a career selling life insurance rn. I just work when my husband is home, it does require field work though. I did instacart, with the kids, and it's something. But not a whole ass income lol

There are a lot of opportunities in digital marketing you can try.
You can check out freelance websites like Upwork or Fiverr for jobs/tasks you can provide.
There is a website I used to use called Rev.com where you can do freelance transcription and captioning if they hire you. Though the waiting period can sometimes be long before they get back to you. I originally applied years ago. So I'm not sure what it's like today.

The other thing I always recommend to stay at home moms that isn't technically a job but helps me earn some extra spending money is using an app called Swagbucks. They pay you for things like playing mobile games, scanning receipts, buying certain grocery items, taking surveys, etc. I've made over $100 since I've had it. I've had it for months now but can't remember the exact amount of time. You can make more or less than that depending on how often you use it, what tasks you do, etc.
Here's a link if anyone is interested.

Same and I’m looking into selling life insurance

If you’re open to learning a new industry & obtaining state licensing… the insurance company I work for is hiring. Fully remote, full or part time option. Average part time agents make $3k-$5k/mo (it’s a commission position so there’s no min/max you can make). Must be self-motivated, team player, and coachable. Please message me on instagram and I’d be more than happy to share! For some reason people try to message me on here and the app is blocking messages and removing posts. My IG is kaitlyn_menser_

Family culture difference on money

Sorry this is long, I hope some of you get to the end and give advice!!!

So I’m a very thrifty person, things are tight at the moment, the cost of living crisis and my house is heated by oil so things are extortionate. We aren’t on the bread line but we aren’t flush, hubby might be made redundant so there is some financial pressure.

Sometimes I buy my sons something nicer, on the justification that I can sell it on after (♥️ vinted ♥️). I have also been planning on pretty much breaking even most of the baby things I bought from face book market place, side by crib, baby changing unit, etc.

Hubby and I have different money cultures with our families (he’s Indian, I’m British). I’m my family we don’t mix money, we would help each other out if someone was in trouble and will get each other gifts on special occasions. With hubby’s family money is much more fluid, they will give each other things worth thousands of £ just because.

Hubby’s brother bought him a new laptop and a new Google phone, he’s been very generous to hubby. Hubby hasn’t given the same back because brother is much richer.

Hubby and I mostly share finances. If it’s relevant I’m the higher earner.

Now to the point! My babies are so cute they’ve given hubby’s brother (currently single) baby rabies. He’s asked for our baby stuff when we’re done with it. He’s been so generous to hubby I feel really stingy saying no. But I’d never have bought some of the stuff if I wasn’t going to get a return on it - the thought makes me a bit anxious. If we gave all our baby stuff given the second hand value it still wouldn’t equal what the brother had given hubby.

I thought maybe I could give him some stuff but sell some stuff, but hubby said then his brother will just have to go out and buy that stuff, so I should name my price and ask his brother for the money. That makes me feel very uncomfortable, given how generous the brother has been to hubby.

So what do I do ladies? Give it all and suck it up? Give part of it and sell parts on Vinted/FB, or ask hubbys brother for money for it and be uncomfortable? Or do you see another solution?

No one is being entitled or rude here, just a culture difference I need to navigate.

My relationship is failing I feel so alone.. I need a girlfriend to talk to :(

I'm a sahm and I feel so stuck... anyone going through the same thing? I could really use someone to relate to and talk through this with. Feeling so vulnerable but if I don't I won't be able to pull myself out of this

Going back to work!

Already thinking about this! Told my boss I was pregnant this week at 10 weeks, he was so happy for me. He’s recently became a first time Dad and was showing me pictures of his baby. I told him my plans about going back after 6 months and he looked at me like I was mad, am I!? I absolutely love my job and cannot imagine giving it up, I manage a team and am petrified my position won’t be there if I had a year off. My husband gets 6 months full pay so the plan would be for him to have the last 6 months off and I also made it clear to my boss that I would like to go part time. That way we can hopefully parent together 4/7 days rather than just the weekend! I am such an overthinking! 🤣 but this is what I’m struggling with the most, I’ve worked full time since I was 17 (12 years ago) and the max time I’ve had off in one go is 2 weeks when I got married. I’m sooo excited to be a Mum and we decided now was the right time, which it 100% is! But I feel so on edge about not working! I’m sure once I’m on maternity leave I won’t even think about work! Has anyone else felt the same?

What are we giving our soon-to-be 3yo for their birthdays?

We have the magnetiles, we have the kinetic sand and play doh, we have the play kitchen…

Literally, is there anything left in the world to buy this spoilt kid? 😅

Baby groups?

Hello there!!
I hope you enjoying the 5month babies 🫠 the cuteness outweighs everything over here.
We live in the area of Croydon & need to start going to baby groups ( I NEED it more than him though) but I am a little bit clueless. Any recommendations?
We are happy to travel a bit too.
Thanks ☺️
