    I am really worried
    I have three children. My daughter who is five does not live with me. But at home I have a two year old son and a one year old daughter. Now I am almost 100% positive that I am pregnant again. It was not planned. I don't know what to do. The first thought was adoption, but I don't really think I can do that. My husband works but I'm a stay at home mom. We don't have a lot of money. I was thinking about finding a work at home job off the internet, but I'm not sure if there all scams or not. Is there anyone who could give me information on getting a job like that. And is there any other mothers out there that have three or more kids, that are close together, and who can just tell me everythings going to be all right, or tell me the truth, am I in trouble, I'm scared .

    I have also looked for internet work from home. Unfortunately most of them are scams. One major thing to look for is if they ask you for money upfront, for training material and stuff like that. Those are scams and you should never give them money.

    There are a couple of websites for work at home moms. I have googled them for you : work at home for moms - Google Search

    But just remember, if they ask for money up front, it is a scam!

    I don't have three kids close together, but I have two. They are both in diapers (one of them only half the time), one drinks formula, and one eats regular food. Plus they both need clothes. They are money consuming, but they are well worth it. I know I'm not much help in this question you have.

    There is always county and state resources, such as WIC, Food Stamps, Welfare, etc. I am on WIC myself, and it is a wonderful thing. I know a lot of people are embarrassed to apply for things like this, but that's what it is there for.

    When I got pregnant with my second son, I was worried like you are. I was convinced that everything would not be okay, but its nothing like I thought it would be. You just have to believe in yourself, and your whole family, and things should turn out okay.

    What kind of things can you do if you were to work from home? What are your abilities? I'm going to research further for you and see if I can find something that you can do. :)

    I can imagine your worry and fear, but I think everything will be okay! You just have to get used to the idea of another bundle of joy blessing your household. I have an eight yr old son, two yr old son, and an 8 month old daughter. My two youngest are very close (17 months apart) and things aren't always easy, but there's never a moment I regret the surprise pregnancies they both were. Sure, I get tired and overwhelmed sometimes, but when I see them playing together it is so sweet and innocent and magical! Best wishes!
