Money at Home-The Stay-at-Home Mom's Guide to Making MoneyIf you are undecided about whether you will continue to work outside the home after your baby is born, you are not alone. Having a baby oftentimes changes the way career-minded women choose to earn a living. You may find that a three-month or so maternity leave just isn't enough time to spend one-on-one with your newborn.

If you're thinking of trying your hand at an at-home business, you're in good company. Author Liz Folger reports in her book, The Stay-at-Home Mom's Guide to Making Money: How to Create the Business That's Right for You Using the Skills and Interests You Already Have (Three Rivers Press, 2nd ed. 2000), that 16 million women in North America are earning money at home today, and the number is growing. Folger, a stay-at-home mom raising two daughters, runs a successful home-based business consulting service for women and hosts two on-line chat rooms on the subject. In the guide, Folger discusses the following:

Avoiding get-rich-quick scams and other costly mistakes.

  • Finding a business you love
  • Planning and budgeting your time
  • Avoiding get-rich-quick scams and other costly mistakes
  • Tapping into the Internet's vast resources and opportunities

... and all the while keeping yourself and your family healthy and happy. Additionally, Folger profiles 29 other successful women who work at home with children.

Some hospitals are releasing newborns before the mom if they are ready to be discharged and the mom is not. Should this happen?
