It is a REAL challenge to juggle career and motherhood. The exact sources of stress may not be the same for everyone, but in general 1. adjust your expectations. Sometimes just surviving is good enough for now. 2. One moment at a time, one thing at a time. As much as we feel like we have so much to take care of, it is impossible to do everything together. Focus on one thing at a time to feel less pressure, get through the tasks one by one. 3. Build a support network - who is good at what? Eg. friend A for emotional support, friend B to help you with meals, friend C for advice on discipline etc 4. Delegate and close one/both eyes - let them do it their way. Learn to let go of trying to control everything cos life will be less stressful, trust me I've learned it the hard way.
