Prosecution could have started there and move forward instead of letting the defense confuse the entire story.

Not in this case, it doesn't prove that she actually murdered the girl, all it proves is bad judgement.
The jury couldn't really convict her on her behavior.
They needed that link that proved without question that she was the one who killed her baby.
They didn't have that. In a lot of ways it felt like they rushed the case, throwing the murder one at her was probably foolish. But I'm baffled about the manslaughter verdict.
