Being a mom is hard, I think a lot of working moms feel that way, Stefani admitted to the mag. [They want] to have time to be themselves as well, but its really hard; theres a price to pay. Like today, Im here talking to you and my son is at the beach. It would be super fun to watch his little four-year-old chunky legs running around, you know.

On balancing work and motherhood, the No Doubt singer said, Its not possible. There are always days that somebody suffers... The only thing I really worry about is, again how do I do this and that? How do I do both? So thats like the constant battle that I have every day. I do worry about that all the time.

One thing that helps is her love for fashion. I just love getting dressed. It wouldnt matter that there were people waiting outside my house or not, I would always get properly dressed. Ask anyone from before, from the first nine years [of the band], any of my friends.
