Hello All,
I have recently joined FIS Global around end of April. My mother recently met with an accident and she needs to be operated.
I haven't been able to update the anything regarding the insurance part yet on FIS portal.
Will my mother's treatment be covered under the insurance? If yes, what's the procedure for the same? What are the documents that I need to submit in order to claim the amount?
Can anyone please guide?

This is tough. The reality is that having a kid changes your life. The future will not be fun the way the past was. But it will be fun in a lot of new ways. Ways that are much more exciting and fulfilling than just going on a nice date.
My wife and I try to have date night once a week. It’s fun and helps us stay focused on our relationship in addition to the relationship that dominates our lives the rest of the time (taking care of our daughter!)
Tell her it takes two to tango and that you’re no more to blame than her, unless you somehow tricked her into having unprotected sex.
But I would recommend counseling ASAP, because this sort of resentment is very unhealthy for a relationship and can continue for a long time.
How old is the baby? Aka accident?
After a few months after the baby everyone feels “where were you all this time that brings so much joy?”
First few months can be rough. Hormones, lacking energy, sleep etc...
Sleep train ASAP. Get a sleep coach if one of you has trouble letting kiddo cry to sleep. (Cost of IR camera, monitor, coach, books, t-shirt, mug, and decoder ring is all worth it.) You’re almost trough the hardest part, if you can get them sleeping on a schedule and are careful to set consistent boundaries within their abilities.
Having kids early is hard. I recommend family and very close friends for babysitting and sleepovers when kiddo is able. Anything you can schedule and count on is best.
Kids are a blessing. Remember that you’ll be growing as much as they are in different ways.
I’d also recommend having an agreed upon structure to problem solving and discussing grievances as a couple. My wife and I have something that works for us, but it’s such a couple-by-couple thing, I’d sit down with professional or couple you both respect and discuss what they have learned.
Acknowledge that it has taken something away and changed life. For both of you. Then ask if we can plan a vision for the future together. Worked for me. Our third was my idea.
I'm no doctor, but this sounds a great deal like postpartum depression.
My wife had it with it third child and she struggled with it for about a year. Getting her to accept that it "happened" to her was really hard, but once she came to that acceptance and started seeing a therapist things got much better and very quickly.
Sometimes our SOs are not complaining because they are trying to make us fix something, they sometimes just want to have someone to speak to that listens... just listen and comfort her.
This is just an idea... I have no clue what's going on. It could also be the fourth trimester, post partum blues, etc..
Be happy yours was after marriage unlike mine. A shotgun wedding, 10 years, and several more kids later life is pretty good. We had a rough first year, but this is definitely where I wanted to end up, just a little sooner.
Gets annoyed about doing baby stuff because she didn’t plan it. What do I tell her to comfort her and to tell her that life isn’t over. She is not forever tied down. We will be able to go back to dates soon. Any advice?
For parents with older children, does it get better as they age? Maybe that will help OP’s wife? We have a 4 month old. I love him. He is also super “annoying” in a way and needs us to attend him constantly. I am not complaining—he’s a baby, I get it—but I am cognizant that he is not “stealing” our private time, he is “stealing” ALL of our time—we can’t get anything done anymore. I am learning to adjust my expectations, but hoping as he can do more for himself we will have less crying and a little more time though not like before.
I do sympathize. PPD + “quarantine” + lack of a full night’s sleep + new identity. It’s a lot to take in all at one time
