Juggling diapers and day planners, bottles and business meetings – the struggles
of new working moms are endless. Striving to find the delicate balance between
all the things on your plate is oftentimes overwhelming.
Many working moms share the sentiments of Amanda Lewandowski, mom of three from Foley, Minn. "I feel like I have to be Supermom," she says. "I need to clean the house, do the laundry, make supper, be a good wife, yet tend to every need of the children, all while working 40 hours a week. There just isn't enough time in a day. Am I spending enough time with my children? Are they getting everything they need from me? Are they being taken care of well enough when I'm at work?"
