How do y'all save money?
My boyfriend and I are struggling so much financially right now. We both have less than $1000 in savings and have a baby due in October. I can barely work because my mental health has gotten so bad and I have no energy. I've also had a lot of cramping, migraines, and chronic pain with my pregnancy that have made it very difficult to work. We don't have to pay rent because we live with his family, but I'm still finishing paying for my previous apartment lease for another month.
Do any of you have tips for saving/making money if you can't work more?

@Ramsy my family refuses to help pay for anything and my boyfriend's family has enough to pay for so we don't ask them for help. I have tried looking for work from home jobs, but haven't had any luck finding anything to apply for. I'm barely able to work part time right now. My boyfriend works full time, though.
I’m on the same boat . Currently looking for a job though
I found out after making this post that I'm also not going to qualify for maternity leave, so I may as well just start looking for a new job anyway

Can you work from home? If both ppl in a couple are working full-time then you get by and save too. Otherwise, your relying on family and that isn't fair to them either unfortunately.
