I feel like I'm losing control

I had a baby nearly nine months ago. With everything that has gone on with CV19 I feel that I was doing pretty well. Then I went for a KIT day and I'm excited about getting back to work (new job within my overall employment) but it seems to have made my baby extremely clingy, coupled with teething I'm struggling to get through the bouts of crying he is currently experiencing. I feel like an awful person leaving him to cry whilst I have a shower, go to the loo, cook dinner etc. I also need to get my weight down and I'd like to be pre baby weight before Christmas (about 2/2.5 stone to lose) but I'm struggling to find the motivation to do this. Everything seems like a massive deal. Weaning is hard work and I feel I'm not doing enough home made meals for him. I get next to no help from my partner and I feel really resentful. I just want to dump all my things and start again. I need to sort every aspect of my life out but I don't know where to start. Even with this post I'm struggling to articulate exactly how I'm feeling and what I'm trying to get across. I guess I just need help. Someone to just help me sort out everything but even when I try I have a baby climbing over me. And as much as I love him to pieces it just isn't sustainable for him to only want me to climb on all the time. I need time to do something to get sorted. Does any of this make sense?
