Oedema around eyes and face can be because of many reasons like anemia hypoproteinemia / kidneys or liver etc... it’s not a straight forward cause so you need to visit a doctor for physical examination and some tests

Hi...Congrats on becoming a mother. But this seems to have taken a toll on your health. Puffiness around eyes can be due to lack of sleep. When you have a very small baby, the mother tends to get all work done when the baby sleeps .. This creates a situation where the mother gets very less sleep. So I suggest you sleep when your baby sleeps. This should reduce puffiness.
Next Steps
if you need further advise contact me via Juvenis Clinic in Mumbai or practo for a video consultation.
