Does it get easier?

I realised from about 2 months in that I had D-MER after I googled it and have found it's become more and more obvious each time. I have a sinking/dread/sadness right before I breastfeed but also multiple other times throughout the day and a few seconds later I'll feel my breasts fill up. My baby is nearly 4 months and it's only getting stronger, but I read it usually gets better after 3 months 😔 Has anyone found it has improved after a certain amount of time or will it most likely just continue until I stop breastfeeding 🙈

It does get better!!! ❤️‍🩹 it was really rough until my son hit 7 months honestly then it all felt very very second nature & now I’m only irritated if he starts playing with my non feeding boob & nipple but that’s an easy fix of holding his hands or putting something over my other boob But if pumping is easier for your mental health & physical body, that’s so ok too! 🫶🏼 I wish you the best

Thank you for sharing. In my experience my symptoms got worse; therefore, I had to stop breastfeeding. It was very hard decision to make but I had to put myself first so I can be okay. If I’m okay my child will be okay too.
