Stay-At-Home Jobs for a New Mom

Does anybody have any suggestions? I'm currently seven and a half months pregnant, and I'll be having my son (yay!) on September 4th. I know it would be hard to have a job outside the house AND be trying to take care of a new baby at the same time.
Before anybody even suggests it, I've already tried those surveys for cash things. None of them have come to anything more than a few entries in a chance to win $10,000 dollars. Not exactly what I want. I need to be sure that I WILL be getting paid. I've also tried Key for Cash. Somehow, they let me pass the first two tests, but the third just won't let me through.
I am working on some crafts (crochet, sewing, etc.) that I could possibly sell on etsy, but I'm a ways off from that.
So, all that being said, suggestions please? They are very much appreciated.

There are real jobs you can find online, you know. Like regular jobs. You can choose from lists of projects. There are small and big projects. There are short and long term projects, as well. It depends what you can do.
Try vWorker.com and oDesk. They're the popular sites to visit if you're looking for stay-at-home jobs. :)

Take care of yourself because pregnant women should not be always in front of computer due to radiation. You may continue to earn money at home after giving birth. Congratulations for your baby!

Thank you! I am trying to stay away from the computer as much as I can (more because I'm addicted to facebook and I'm trying to break away, though).

what about trading? Have u ever tried that or have u ever given trading stocks, a second thought
Trading for sure is a risky business but at the same time, it's underlying potential to help you make big bucks is also enormous. However, as a rule of thumb, it's alwez advisable to know some of the basic aspects of trading before plunging into buying and selling stocks.

I think you write well and www.expertscolumn.com pays five dollar minimum payout thru pay pal and it can be reached easily, some people make 10 a day thru writing and writing about your hobbies is also a crowd puller. The minimum words are 300. All the best.

1) I see you were already told about expertcolumn (EC). I'll suggest first registering to Triond - publish you writing there, and only 2 days later republish it on EC. This way you get paid twice for the same article.
2) If you are a photographer or a designer - check out Zazzle. You can create stuff & post to zazzle and you get earning from every sell!
Also if you are a marketer or promoter you can register to their affiliation program and earn commissions from sell you promote.
3) Again about promoting - if it is your thin - you might want to consider Amazon association program. It only pays 4%. Yet, it is Amazon - you can prompt almost anything and earn very nicely!
Good luck :)
