Jana Kramer has revealed how she's juggling Dancing with the Stars with motherhood and a demanding country-music career.

"I'm getting a handle on balancing being a mom, touring and doing the show now, but some days seem impossible," Kramer admitted in her People blog.

"Friday night I took a red eye to get to Atlanta for a show on Saturday. [Gleb Savchenko] and I had about an hour of sleep before rehearsal Saturday morning, but we got energized and excited at rehearsal and got through it."

On the next Dancing with the Stars performance show, Kramer and her pro partner will take the stage with a foxtrot choreographed to a song from Cirque du Soleil's The Beatles Love.

"Gleb is truly amazing. If I'm not doing a good job I feel like I'm I hate letting him down, but when I'm having a bad day he is super encouraging," Kramer insisted.

"I will admit, I've had to tell my management that we have to figure out a way to move things around because I need more time with my daughter and to take care of myself. I am still nursing my rib injury, but really it's about being with my daughter more."

Kramer tore muscles between her rib cage at the very beginning of the competition, however, she's been determined to dance through the pain.

"I'm burning the candle at both ends and I just need to make sure I'm taking enough time to have some peace and family time," Kramer wrote in her blog.

"But that said, I wouldn't give up this DWTS for anything. I can't wait to get out there on the dance floor tonight. It's going to be a really fun night."

With every rehearsal, Kramer says she feels more confident in her dancing ability.

"If I would have put this blog together Friday, I would have said, 'This dance is going to be a mess.' But by Saturday I was feeling better about it," Kramer acknowledged.

"In general, my confidence has been improving week to week. I've messed up a couple of times and that is what I focus on when I get stressed out, but I've been getting better at embracing having fun."

Kramer has made a habit of giving it her "all" every time she hits the DWTS ballroom floor.
