My husbands on disability, we have 3 toddlers with our 4th due in May. Our bills currently exceed our income and thats with me working full time. I have no idea how were going to get through my leave when the baby comes. Any suggestions as far as side hustles or ways to make extra money?

I do childcare. Message me and I can help you get started

I used to be an Instacart shopper on the side. I would do like 2 days for four hours, 1 weekend day for 8 hours. Back in the day I was making like $1000/mo. I have a friend that does it full time and he made $2200 in a week (taxes aren't taken out). Idk if it's popular in your area but highly recommend

Is your husband a full time stay at home dad?

Oh one thing. Get him to get a vasectomy after this baby. Or you
Might be in this exact situation AGAIN in 12 months time.
this is definitely my top option as I already work full time at a hospital
he's on disability right now because of an accident so it's not a permanent thing and we're moving into a cheaper living situation in the next month or so. I just need something to help get me by until summers over
i already work full time in the hospital

You could try selling things on fb like even hand made stuff like really tap into creativity I know people make strawberries and shit but just put all that power to use it can make you some money

So pictures of your feet lol jk get a job if you're actually struggling financially you don't need a side hustle you need an actual job A side hustle is something fun to do when you're looking for a little extra cash but you already have money coming in then you could do like DoorDash or Uber eats or Uber Lyft if you're crafty you could make jewelry or make things out of epoxy or make candles etc to sell but if you're struggling to pay bills then you're going to want a real job start filling out applications and calling places back Don't give up and keep trying until you get hired you might have to work two jobs depending on how much they are willing to pay you could also apply for food stamp s and other government programs to help with bills and groceries etc

that is definitely true
i already work full time at the hospital i work 12 hour shifts 30 weeks pregnant i get WIC and food stamps so I'm just looking for anything to bring in a little money at this point

I didn't ask why he's on disability. I asked if he's a stay at home dad.
Does he care for the children while you are at work?
they go to daycare most days of the week but he does watch them on the days I work that they don't go to school, sometimes my parents help as well

Well....can he watch them more often? If you drop daycare days, that's one bill that will go down

I get that, but you can do it as a side hustle or while you’re on leave so that you can bring your baby with you once you’re comfortable enough
