Here is an interesting post on the D-MER blog where they discuss the article written by Michelle as well as pointing out as Jen did in the comments that I spelled Dysphoric Dysmophic. Pah, nobody is perfect. I have however corrected it on my post so people can actually find it.
I am surprised that since Michelle’s article a few more clients have mentioned feeling the same or even an anger associated with it, all of which is discussed on the D-MER website.
I myself breast fed for a long time, I didn’t tandem feed but went from one to another with very little gap. We lived in the same house for 3 of the 4 births and when they were small. I didn’t feel I had many problems except a fear of the stairs. We lived in a house converted from some art deco flats and the joining stairs had a sharp turn. I had a morbid fear of hitting the baby’s head when doing the stairs. Over the years I talked about it many times with my husband who thought it was funny. I often made him carry the baby up the stairs. I thought of it as my brain blip, my personal madness. Maybe lots more of us have these issues than is out there. I feel this is the case because it was almost always before I fed the baby upstairs.
Please go and look at the D-MER site it is very revealing.

Hey, i know it’s been a while since you posted this, but i just wanted to say thank you. Because of it I was able to help out a woman on a discussion board who basically described everything on that site but had no clue what was going on. I would have been as clueless as the women who were offering support and kind words.
So thanks. =)
