Hi everyone. I am a new mom with a 3 month old son. I have to go back to work and I am dreading it. I cant afford not to work, but would love to work from home. Anyone have any ideas.... |

Michelle,
I don't have any great ideas, but I went back to work when my daughter was 9 weeks old and I know how it feels.....Just remember that noone can replace you and that the time you spend with her before/after work and on weekends is the most important time for both of you. Also, know it is OK to feel sad AND know that you are doing the right thing for your family.
Best wishes,
Celeste |

Hello. I stayed home for a while with my step-son. I sold Avon and made ok money. My sister in-law sold Mary Kay. Some other jobs you can do are longaberger, Simply Tasteful and At home America. But the only problem with these companies are that you have to have parties to bring alot more income in. I sold Avon out of the book instead of doing parties (I'm really shy) I didn't make a hole lot but around holidays I'd make around $100.00 maybe more. It's not a hole lot but it's something. But my husband works a full time job. I really did avon so I'd have something to do. I don't sell it anymore because I was in a head on collusion and had a baby. I'm very busy now and I don't have time to sell Avon anymore. Hopefully I'll be able to sell again next year. |

After I quit my job we started selling things on ebay. Our goal is to make $200 a week. It does take a little money to get started, we are not getting rich, but the extra cash is nice. Sports items sell really well, it doesn't matter what team. Good Luck |

Hi MIchelle! Sorry you are dreading your return to work. I have a home business on the side that I love, so if you are interested, you can check out my website: www.juiceplus.com/+rh67100 It is a source of extra income that I can create at whatever pace I choose, and I work from home. Some people's businesses take off immediately, while others choose to go at a slower rate. How much work you put in is up to you. |

Thank you everyone for responding.....I know that we all go through it, its just something that I didnt want to have to do. Its nice to know there is support here if you need it. Sometimes you feel like your the only one thats feeling the way you do, then you realize people go through it everyday. Thanks!!!! |
