@laurenrelf_: Nobody talks about this part of maternity leave 👇🏻 £187 a week. That’s what many mums are expected to survive on while recovering from birth, running on broken sleep, and caring for a newborn. I remember sitting on the sofa one night with my baby asleep on my chest, going over the numbers again and again. Mortgage.Bills.Food shop.Nappies. It didn’t add up. And somehow I felt guilty for even worrying… like I should just be grateful. But the truth is — gratitude doesn’t pay the mortgage. That was the moment I realised something had to change. I didn’t want to rush back to work just to hand most of my salary over to childcare. So I started looking for ways to make money from home during nap times. And that’s when everything shifted. If you’re a mum on maternity leave wondering how people are making extra income from home… You’re not the only one who’s had that “this can’t be it” moment 🤍 Comment or message me START and I’ll send you my free starter guide 💌 #maternityleave #workingmum #earnfromhome #mumsoftiktok #maternity
