D-MER

Anyone else experiencing D-MER? I exclusively pump, but truly don’t know how much longer i can pump. I get so angry, sad and overstimulated while pumping and it’s just getting worse and worse. I truly don’t know what else to do. I’m 5 months pp and it just recently started.

What is DMER I too am 5 months PP and running low on mojo to pump.

Oh interesting. No im questioning if that’s my issue or not. I know one thing my pumps are so uncomfortable and annoying I keep switching from wearable to hand, to wall. All 3 are annoying in someway but the heaviness from my breasts and pump is making my back ache, and I’m not having a good time anymore 🥴. It could be from DMER now I’m thinking about it. Do you feel it’s from the milk let down? Or are your pumps bothering you? Nips bothering you, ect.?

@Mia i think it may be a mix of all of it. I use momcozy s9 pros and they have been fine up until this point. I get a rush of anger and overstimulation and i just want to quit pumping so much but im trying to make it to a year 😩

Girl. Same. I normally use my Elvie stride I normally love it. But BZZ BZZ BZZ makes me crazy and the feeling makes my stomach turn. Have u tried switching pumps?

I have a motif pump that i think im gonna try tomorrow and see

Yes this is the reason I stopped pumping altogether :(

Yes! I exclusively breastfeed but I get an overwhelming feeling of anxiety and then it goes away right after. It’s such a strange feeling. My lactation consultation recommended deep breaths during it or to try and distract myself. It’s helped lessen it a bit but I def still feel it.

Yep! It doesn't matter if I pump or breastfeed. I'm nauseous to the point of throwing up with my let downs and pretty intense anxiety through the whole session. 5 months pp and trying to make it to a year.

Therapy? Maybe?...just speaking as a new parent who kept therapist on during and pp.

Hii!! YES I do majorly!!! Message me if you need a friend I'm also 5m pp
