Maternity leave and $$$

Kristina

I am the primary breadwinner in my family. I pay all of the bills. My husband works but his money goes to his credit cards and child support for his kids from a previous relationship, so financially he gives me maybe $200 a month.

I have 3 weeks vacation and I plan on taking 8 weeks maternity leave. I have a little money saved up to help with bills during this time, but I will likely end up dipping into my 401k to make ends meet.

I was just wondering if there are any of you in similar situations or if you know of a way I can make extra money while I’m on leave??
