It's a struggle for many, depending on the work one does, finding a comfortable balance may prove difficult and in some cases impossible. A further complicating factor is that this "comfortable balance" is an ever shifting goal, one adjusts as and when necessary.
More than anything however, a supportive and capable co-parent and/or a well constructed and dependable support system allows mothers to be working professionals without feeling they have to choose one or the other.
Many mothers wear themselves out trying to do everything, this is neither practical nor sustainable. It is important to know what and where to delegate and prioritize. Time is limited and with so much to do being organized doesn't hurt.
In my experience it is never easy per say but not only is it possible but it is well within many women's ability to manage given the right resources, organization and support.
