Okay, I'm 35 weeks pregnant and I'm desperate for a work from home job. I have one month till my baby girl arrives and still so many things to buy! Does anyone know of honest good work from home jobs? I've looked at the survey jobs but, you have to put money into them or they're alot of bs. I don't have any extra money to put into anything and I need to make actually money! Can anyone help? Please and thank you!

I work for a company called West Teleservices, it's NOT telemarketing but processes incoming service/product orders for various companies (http://www.workathomeagent.com). You set your own hours and it's really easy work. Someone else mentioned the Work at Home Moms Magazine website (http://www.wahm.com), it is where I found this job and is an invaluable resource. Not only do they list legitimate work at home or telecommuting jobs, they also list work at home scams and have an immense forum where other women can share information or talk about what they do with each other. I would definitely check out the WAHM website, and maybe browse the forums to see what other moms are up to and get an idea of what could work for you.

YES! There are legit work at home options…….I looked for 2 years before I found a good one! Learn from my experiences….lol
I’m a stay at home mom of two little girls a 1 year old and a 3 year old. I work about 15-18 hours per week for a National Medical Benefits Company. I have been with the company for 6 months and am now making over $2500 a month! In your first month, depending on how many hours you can work I have seen people make anywhere from $500-$2000. And your income will increase each month because we get paid residual income as well. If I continue on as I am going at the end of my 2nd year with the company I will be making $75,000 a year! My friend Becky started 2 years before me. She is now making $95,000 a year.
The best part is they have 401(k), direct deposit and a benefits package. In addition, there are no products, no hard selling or pushing, no cold calling and no telemarketing! That was VERY important to me.
I absolutely love working with them and I can't believe I am making what I am making and in so few hours per week. The neat thing is there are other people on your team that you work with so you are never alone. The support is great but I have made wonderful friends as well. I think that’s important too, especially being at home!
I was a bit apprehensive at first because I know a lot of companies are not legit but this company is the number one National Medical Benefits Company in the US. They are a member of the US Chamber of Commerce which is very impressive. Also they were featured in “The New York Times”, “Wall Street Journal” and the “American Medical Review”. Even “60 Minutes” with Morley Safer did a big special on them!
Even more then all this is they are accepted at over 100,000 retailers nation wide. These are fortune 500 companies like Sears, Target, Walgreens, CVS, Wal-mart and more. These companies would never work with a company that was any thing less then reputable. That made me feel very good about working with them knowing they were accepted at the stores I frequent. Also now of course being with them I get the benefits for free and I saved over $150 on my last visit to the dentist! That’s just a beautiful perk! : - )
When I first started I just felt very safe with them…. that and my friend was already making so much money with them! But at this point I feel a sense of security financially that our family has never had before. That plus LOVING what you do? What could be better?
Check them out! Just type in www.workathomeplus.net in your web browser.
I know some people want to work from home with no cost involved. That unfortunately won’t happen as all the work from home opportunities are home businesses not jobs (Just Over Broke). We know that there is cost involved with running any business but one main reason I chose Ameriplan is because our costs are SO low. It is less then $100 bucks to start this lucrative home business and that was important to me because I didn’t have hundreds or even thousands to start a home business. I would think most people don’t as well.
Good luck in your search. Ameriplan is an amazing company to work with so I hope you check them out!

Hi,
To be honest, I think you are to far along to start a job. Please rest because you are going to need it!!!
There is always time to work after you have recovered from giving birth.
Have you tried yard sales and thrift stores for the things you need? Honestly you can find some really nice things for a great price.
Take it easy, your body and your baby will thank you for it!
Good luck and congrats on your precious baby girl!

You are too pregnant to start any job right now. If you need things. Get registered at a store. Walmart even has baby registry. Ask for every thing you need even gift cards then e-mail or send/give cards to every one you know and or have a baby shower.
The baby will be out soon and there will be no time at all. It is time to be social and network.

I'm also 35 weeks and the other day I was looking through the paper and I saw an ad that seemed legit. I'll give you the site. I'm not sure where you live or if they would do it in your area but it's worth a shot! Good luck!! http://www.westat.com/atHome/index.cfm

It depends on your skills. So, the question, unfortunately, is very hard to answer without more information. Go to a career counsellor at your local college or university to assess your skills first. Then you'll know what you can do.
I could list jobs here but if you don't have the training.....
For example, can you type?? If so, how fast? Etc.
Too much involved in this question. Sorry.

Unfortunately, unless you have a great idea that you can capitolize on you must take classes for such work and even then it is tough to find. (ex, medical coder, medical transcriptionist, virtual assistant, etc.)
