Research suggests that growing pressure on working mothers both external and internal contributes to a feeling of intolerable stress. The pressure comes from the media and society, but mostly it comes trom person's own selves. More working mothers than ever are trapped in an endless cycle of guilt: feeling they are bad mothers because they work and bad employees because they have a family. The children are inevitably affected in return atfecting the well-being of working women post maternity who perceive least support trom significant others or family/ triends. Therefore, it is necessary to focus on the psychological well-being and perceived social support among working women post maternity. Psychological well-being is influenced by life events, personality characteristics, personal goals, perceived social support, the type of attribution one makes. The results depict that there is no significant etfect of perceived social support on the psychological well-being of the post maternity women.Keywords
