Unfortunately not long after I told my employer I was pregnant she let me go from my job, before people say about citizens advice...it was cash in had job so I don’t have a leg to stand on (my own fault)

Anyway the question is has anyone found a way of making money doing other jobs whilst pregnant? Any company’s that employ you to work from home, at 27 weeks I’m gunna struggle to get a normal job so seeing if there are other ways from home people have managed to make some money whilst pregnant and after giving birth thanks!

Also claiming of the government isn’t an option as there are mutiple adults in my household so apparently the household income is too high

When it comes to claiming benefits in England only the income of a partner you live with counts towards your personal household income. My sister lives with my mum, my mum is on a high income but my sister gets benefits; plus my brother is in the same situation with my dad and he also get's benefits. If you're living with any adult who isn't your partner, their income doesn't matter.
