Whitney Port on the unique struggle of being a millennial mom

You most likely recognize Whitney Port as the level-headed, voice of reason from the hit MTV reality show "The Hills" — which eventually led to her own spin-off series, "The City."

It’s been 12 years since the now fashion designer, author and CEO of her label Whitney Eve first let the cameras in and her life is still an open book. But instead of watching her pound the pavement as she tries to break into the fashion industry, Port is documenting a new sort of survival mode: navigating the ups and downs of motherhood.

Her popular YouTube series “I Love My Baby, But…” is an unbelievably candid look at Port’s journey as a new mom to her 8-month old son, Sonny. And it’s no wonder why it has gained such traction: she holds nothing back, being brutally honest about tough topics like the guilt of not being able to breastfeed, the very real struggle of being hungover with a baby, and how terrible it was taking her baby out of the house for the first time.

We caught up with the new mom in New York City where she hosted a panel for Water Wipes on what it really means to be a parent today. She got real on life after baby from the shift in her career to mom guilt to realizing work/life balance is an unrealistic goal.
