    Default Need some work ideas other than webcam, at home on bedrest :(

    Hey Everyone,

    I'm currently 33 weeks pregnant, and was just put on bedrest from my doctor. I was working at a pediatrics office (once I found out I was preggers, I quit dancing) but now, I can't leave the house. I have NO income coming in, which scares me because I have bills I can't neglect. I luckily have the help of my fiance who is taking over rent and utilities completely, but he doesn't make enough to cover all our bills, plus his seperate bills like his truck and insurance, and my bills as well. (Car and insurance payment and phone.) He's doing the most he can working overtime and such, but I feel horrible that I can't contribute. Is there anything I can do online while sitting at home all day? God knows I have the spare time!!! He doesn't want me doing webcam (At least showing my face and body) while I'm pregnant since he thinks thats something sacred between us right now, which I agree. Any other ideas? Even if its only a spare $300-$400 a month, it would help out a lot. All suggestions would be great!

    P.S. I tried getting onto state cash assistance but they denied me since my household income is over the maximum. So, that's not an option either. Kinda out of ideas!!

    Most of this has been posted several times already, but here are the resources that I have used for the past few years.

    http://www.ratracerebellion.com/ go to daily job leads, and surf the site for other jobs that may interest you.

    http://www.workplacelikehome.com/forum/ My favorite forum for non adult related work at home jobs. The "work at home jobs" section has a wealth of info, and list just about all of the legit companies that hire at home workers.

    http://psosupport.com/ awesome resource for phone sex operators, and text chat operators. A huge wealth of info is on there.

    http://fiverr.com/ If you have any skills as far as writing, web design, or anything that you can think of that can be of service to other, then you can post your service here. It would need to be a small because you only get paid $5 per gig sold. But it does add up, and you said you are looking to make up to $400 per month extra. So every little bit helps.

    If you spend your time with those sites, you are bound to find something that can supplement your income, as I have, and still do.

    Also not trying to be nosy but you did mention pregnancy and fiance. If you are not married and don't have an income, you should be able to get approved for some type of assistance, unless you put on your application that your fiance takes care of you, which I would not really tell them.

    Try calling 211 from your phone. It is the United Way help line, and tell them your situation and needs. they may be able to direct you to some agency that can help with utilities, food, and baby items.

    My sister works a customer service job from home. It's stressful though and it's only minimum wage. I don't think I would want to do that stressful work while pregnant. Some do very well with phone sex so definitely check out that PSO board.

    Maybe phone sex. Just choose a company that lets you log in and out at will, also I would avoid the no taboo companies.

    Thank you guys!!! I really appreciate the info, I will definitely look into those websites posted. I thought of phone sex, probably would be a good idea. I have been so sick during this pregnancy though, I could just see it now....."and then I would slide my lips down your huge throbbing....wait a sec, gotta go puke, hold that thought..."
    I'll check it out.

    Also, thank you BustyAmeera for the resources and hotline number, very helpful. As far as the cash assistance goes, I was the dummy who included in fiancée income on my application since it's under one household. I was too freaked to lie, wishing I had have left that part out now though! We are getting married a month after he is born, but I may try and re apply until then.

    phone sex is an excellent idea for a pregnant sex worker.

    You are welcome and glad to help! Don't forget you can get wic. Have you applied for that? They are a lot different than welfare. The approval process is not as strict, and you should at least be able to get that for now. Now when I go to the grocery store I see that they are allowing wic users to buy more things now.

    You can check out a few places online such as, workingsol.com, liveperson.net, westathome.com. WAHM.com is another resource to use if you’re looking for more info on how work from home. WAHM stands for work at home moms. Also. there's voice over work at Voices.com or freelance writing for DemandStudios.com

    http://www.usertesting.com/be-a-user-tester/ is also a legitimate way to get 10 bucks for 20min; though the amount of gigs you can get in a month varies based on your demographic and a couple of other factors.

    Here's a great thread about freelance writing jobs if you're interested in that:

    Good luck and congratulations on the baby to come and on the wedding to come
