Abstract:This paper discusses the findings of a questionnaire survey interviewing 216 women professionals in Shanghai to identify connections between childbearing and work and family balance. The research findings show that childbearing is one of the most important events in the lives of women professionals, and can cause their lower job satisfaction, although the support of their supervisors can help them overcome their dissatisfaction. The work-family imbalance, moreover, can result in their lower satisfaction with family live, although the support of their family can help them overcome the dissatisfaction. The paper concludes with a recommendation by the interviewed 20 women professionals in different childbearing period and 6 experts specializing in gynecology and obstetrics in Shanghai of the adoption of a work-family balance plan, one that is to be developed upon positive childbearing values, appropriate timing, more accurate estimation of the influences of childbearing on work and family, the support of their family and their supervisors, and flexible work time arrangement.
