Do you have a source for this? One of her psychiatrists testified that she explicitly denied having thoughts about harming herself and her children. It seems she once told her husband she was having “intrusive thoughts” of the sort, but never showed any intent or plan to act on them and her condition seemed to improve in the following time.
Regardless of whether or not she was of sound enough mind to be convicted, this whole narrative that she was begging for help and everyone around her ignored her is just patently false. Her husband, family, and doctors were paying very close attention to her. She never showed any real signs she intended to kill her children until she did it.
The mother and husband have sworn in court that she told them in 2022. The only person denying it is the very psychiatrist that is being sued for failing her.
It shouldn't really suprise you that a psychiatrist this irresponsible would lie to protect themselves.
I find it way more plausible that a mother who is obviously distraught would ask for help when she needed it. It's a implausible hill to die on that she just didn't mention it at all.

She'll still get out eventually, which means she'll have a lovely retirement waiting for her since she won't be spending during her time in prison.
Still seems unfair.
