Gwen Stefani found it hard to record new album whilst being a mother

Gwen Stefani has admitted that it was difficult to work on No Doubt's latest album whilst trying to be a mother at the same time.

The singer has two children with husband Gavin Rossdale - six-year-old Kingston and four-year-old Zuma.

Speaking to Marie Claire, Stefani revealed that she would sometimes turn up to the recording studio to work on 2012 comeback album 'Push and Shove' after a hard day's work, only to think of her children back home. The singer said:

"I would be up all night because my second baby didn't sleep, and he had a lot of ear infections. Then I'd wake up in the morning and do my workout, which I always felt I had to do, and then meetings for my three clothing lines, and then hang out with my kids, take them to preschool – da, da, da."

She continued: "At four o'clock, I'd be like, 'All right, I'm out of here. I'm going to go to the studio and try to write a record'. I'd sit on the couch [with my band mates] and be like, 'Let's do this now, because I'm missing time with the kids. I could be having dinner with them and putting them to bed'. It was really hard."
