Is it postpartum???
I feel like I don't have enough time for anything... is it i'm not a good mom or perhaps i don't manage my time right... it seems as though there's always something that's got to get done and no time to do it... Laundry.. dishes... cleaning... straightening up.... calls to parents.... .lesson plans.. dinnner.... or just spending time with friends....when I don't get everything done - i feel like what's wrong with me .... everyone else can manage why can't I? It's getting better...but when will it just seem to flow????

You are a terrific mother. Don't forget that. You have taken on a huge responsibility ( raising a child) and you can't expect for life to be the same as it once was. Jenna is so precious, everything else can wait! Laundry, dishes, cleaning,etc, can all wait another day. Life will still go on and you will have many wonderful memories of her growing up. And don't think everyone else manages. We all put things off. When she gets a bit older things will be different. You will also have a routine figured out. SOON!
Yeah, I don't have it all together and I don't have the excuse of a new baby. No one balances it all right, and no one is better than you are -- as the Dalai Lama says, others may seem better but we all have the same, fallibility in common.
