Hello,
I am a new mom of a 10.5m daughter.
I am a working professional on wfh now. Resumed office after 8 months when my baby completed 8 months.
I lost my mother in 2020 November and my baby was born in 2021 November.
I stay with my in laws and husband.
I stay in a busy place with no parks or place for walks. Weather is also very unfavourably humid even at this time of the year.
I feel left out in office. Even the juniors are performing whereas I am not able to work at all.. sometimes due to baby sometimes my mind is so full and blocked.
I feel overwhelmed so much and don't know what to do about it. Nobody understands how much ever I try to talk. I feel I am not respected , neither the effort I am putting in to manage everything is recognised. Trying to do the best for my baby. She doesn't eat much and happily . Her weight gain is also on the lower end.
I guess I want little professional help now.

Hi
You are working and taking care of your baby. I understand it can be tough to manage work and baby. You feel left out in office and you feel you are not able to work. You feel you don’t have anywhere to go to get some fresh air. You are staying in a a busy place and you are not able to go for walks. The humid weather is making you feel low as well. To feel better consult a psychologist. With a psychologist you can talk about whether you are getting support from husband and in-laws. You can also talk about whether your husband and in-laws are helping you with house work. It is necessary to know if you are showing signs of burnout. What you are going through could be postpartum depression. Do not worry counselling sessions will help you feel better. You are taking good care of your baby and family. Over a period of time you will feel better.
Seek professional help.
Talk to a Paediatrician if your baby is not gaining weight.

Hi... There are a range of possible factors that are impacting your mental well-being. The loss of your mother and the grief that you might have repressed appears to be the root of your suffering. Being a mother for the first time and the environment at your workplace and home are adding to your poor mental health. I believe you have not grieved enough to let your pent-up emotions come out. In this novel situation (motherhood) you are probably missing your mother at a subconscious level and missing her presence. You need to take Grief Counselling to overcome these pent-up feelings and to learn to deal with the challenges of being a working mother.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist.
Grief Counselling and Personal Guidance is required.
