I am almost 6 months pregnant and plan on staying home when I have the baby, this is really important to me and it is what my husband and I want. Does anyone know of any real jobs that I can do from home that pay real money. I see this stuff on t.v. all the time but I don't believe most of it. Please any real advice will help.

Very few real companies are going to hire a stranger to do work for them with no training or supervision. Most people who work from home either work for themselves, or have worked for a company for many years, and then had a personal situation arise that caused them to need to work from home. If they were trusted long-term employees, and if their jobs could be done remotely, the companies made accommodations.
If you want to earn money, you will have to get a real job. You can't earn a living answering surveys (which really just collect info on you!) on the Internet. No company is going to pay good money for that when they can simply provide a survey link on their receipts and get ACTUAL CUSTOMERS to tell them what they thought of their services or products (for free!).
Legitimate companies are not going to pay to ship materials to you, let you fold them stuff them or address them, and then pay for you to ship them back to them. How would that possibly make financial sense?

there are opportunities to work from home in your own business. This is what I do. I am a stay at home dad of two kids (4 and 2) with a third on the way. I left the coporate world as a software project manager b/c we too saw it important to have at least one stay at home parent. You can contact me to find out more what we are doing.
We have had our business for a little over four years and by investing in others and helping with with their health and teaching them how to build their own business, we have earned over $115K in residual income (avg almost $30K from home working 10-15 hours per week around the kids). It is the most honorable work I have ever done and now we are kicking it up a notch to bring my wife home where we can be a two parent stay-at-home family.
Lastly, I am friends with several pregnant / new moms that are at home making a significant financial contribution to their families while at the same time doing what is most important, raising their own kids. I would be happy to introduce you to a few so you can see the reality of what is happening and bring hope into your life for a great future for your family.

I completely agree with Rick B. He is absolutely stating the truth. No legit company is gonna pay money to do surveys... and do you really want to sit at home doing surveys all day?? The ads that you see stating "work from home, make good money" are all frauds because once you read them you'll find out that you have to pay a start up fee and most likely they will just fraud you. People who work from home either have their own business or have been working for a company for a while. Rick B's answer states the truth and is common sense.

Rick B is completely correct. The only people who have at home jobs, are those that
A) Created their own business
B) Had a typical office job. And it made sense for the company to allow them to work from a Home office. This is a rare occurance with professionals, that work completely over a computer/fax/phone. It makes sense for the company in freeing up office space. Keeps them from having to relocate to a more expensive, and larger office building.
Lastly, you might want to reconsider quitting work permanently. It is gets harder each year to go back, as your skillset erodes. In todays age, it is not uncommon for both parents to have fufilling careers, and raise a child.

Yes there a few good jobs or businesses if you will. I cant include url's because this will be deleted but think along the lines of makeup and candles. I do both. Great health benefits after 90 days.

I am not too sure. But do some research before you make a decision about a particular job.
