Melissa Rycroft is a first-time mom. Any advice to her on how best to move on with her career while still being a great mom to baby Ava?

The best advice I can give to new mom Melissa Rycroft is to take care of herself and her new baby first; then she can figure out how to move on with her career. If she plans to resume working, she needs good help and an understanding employer.

Tip: Working moms need to take time for themselves so that they have energy for their families and careers.
