Making money when you have a young baby!

[Orangeisthenewtired]

hi all posted on money matters but thought I’d move to parenting ….

just wondering if anyone has any experience with this and can give some advice.
I have a young baby - 5 months old.
me and DP’s relationship is starting to fail and I can see the relationship is going to start coming to an end soon.
i don’t work and DP does so all finances are from him. I just want to find ways to make money from home that can tie me over but where I won’t need to worry about leaving DD as she is still too young for that and is very reliant on me so I want to be there for her especially at these crucial moments where she is growing and changing every day.
that being said, I do need to make my own money soon as I need to ensure I have something behind me if DP does decide to leave me and cut my money off.

does anyone know or have any ways that you can make some money online/at home that doesn’t take too much time away from a baby?
I know there’s probably no such job out there and if there was everyone would be doing it. At this point I’d happily sell foot pics but I’m not sure anyone wants to see my rough old trotters!

Sell everything on ebay. All the old baby clothes. Anything you no longer need. We're talking volume here. So you might only make 50p an item

I’m a SAHM and do matched betting - not a long term gig but I’ve made about 5k over the last year. Oddsmonkey do a free trial so u can see how it works.
I also do some freelance work with Appen doing things like transcription, but can be a bit hit and miss what pops up. I also do surveys with Prolific. There’s a £10 a day thread somewhere on the money board you might find helpful

Are you trained in anything so that you can get a job when DD is a little older? If not, it might be the time to start reskilling.
