Do you bring in any extra income as a SAHM?

I have been a SAHM since my son was born (he is now 2 years old). I want to try and bring in some extra income while being home with my kids. I have my 2 year old and my 3 month old and would like to bring in some extra income while being with them.

What do you do to bring in extra income? I’ve thought about posting on tik tok but I know it takes a while to start getting paid. Maybe bake some goodies but then would need to buy baking supplies and ingredients. Etsy maybe, but I believe you need to pay to post items on there?

Will my milk supply decrease if my baby sleeps so much??

My baby is almost 3 months old (in less than a week) and she sleeps pretty much all night and naps for 2+ hours in the afternoon. She sleeps from around 9pm-5am, some nights she will wake up earlier and go back down if I nurse her. But lately I’ve been concerned about my milk supply decreasing if she’s sleeping so much. I’m extremely thankful she sleeps pretty much all night but I just worry about my milk supply decreasing. Will I be fine?? I know my supply adjusts to baby’s needs but she’s just sleeping so much. Her wet diapers are just fine, she’s been having to be changed maybe 6-8 times a day.

What non-toxic cooking utensils, pots and pans, and dinnerware would you suggest?

Just as the title says, I’m looking for wooden cooking utensils, maybe stainless steel pots and pans (idk what’s better stainless steel or ceramic or cast irons?), and what dinner plates and bowls are you using? I have 2 kids (2 year old and a 3 month old) and I want us to start using non-toxic items in the kitchen. I’m becoming more aware of plastics and silicone and I just want to reduce the use of these. For my babies I’m considering getting ceramic plates and bowls but I’m not sure what brands are best for them.

Thank you!

What is your favorite diaper brand and baby soap brand?

My almost 3 month old has been using Millie Moon diapers but I have seen a lot of parents say they must have changed their formula or ingredients as their babies are getting chemical burns. My oldest used Huggies Skin Essentials. Both babies had reactions to Pampers. I’m considering going back to Huggies if that’s what is going to work for us. I’ve also heard about the brand Coterie but they are so pricy! Are they worth it?? I wanted to know what everyone else would suggest?

Now baby soap. We use Pipette from Target but I feel like it hasn’t been cleaning my baby good enough I guess? It’s extremely hot where I live and she gets sweaty while she naps and she already gets stinky after sweating so much. After her bath she still has a little stink and I use a washcloth and lather her up pretty good. I’m considering the French brand Mustela since I’ve used the cleansing water and the lotion and I love it! But what do you use for your babies??

Current diapers: Millie Moon
Considering: Huggies skin essentials or Coterie
Current soap: Pipette
Considering: Mustela

Thank you!
