Ivanka Trump to balance motherhood, career

Ivanka Trump will reportedly continue to balance both career and parenthood after giving birth to her first child later this year.

The 29-year-old - who announced last month that she and husband Jared Kusher are expecting - is said to feel confident that she can juggle business opportunities and motherhood after being raised in a similar environment.

"Ivanka has thoroughly enjoyed being an aunt to her brother Donald, Jr and his wife Vanessa's two children, so she got the bug early," a source told PopEater.

"She had a strict upbringing herself in a close family and will be a wonderful mother because she puts 1,000 percent into everything she does."

Writing in her 2009 book The Trump Card: Playing to Win In Work And Life, Trump said: "My parents have both led non-traditional lifestyles, but they have extremely traditional relationships with their children."

She will give birth this fall.
