37 分钟Meet my friend Bethany Lovern, host of Breastfeeding Relief with Bethany. In this episode, Bethany and I chat about struggles as a new mom, including breastfeeding, Postpartum Depression (PPD), Postpartum Anxiety (PPA), and Dysphoric Milk Ejection Reflex or D-MER. Bethany shares: In this episode, Patricia discusses how she struggled with her ADHD symptoms after becoming a mom, leading to sleepless nights spent searching for support online. Though initially unwilling, she was later prompted by her faith to start a podcast supporting moms with ADHD. Patricia and I chat about our personal experiences with postpartum depression and anxiety. We also delve into Dysphoric Milk Ejection Reflex (D-MER), which is described as a sudden mood change when milk lets down. I share how, as a first-time mom, I constantly tracked feedings, sleep and milestones, worrying over my son’s well-being. We both emphasize the need for finding community for shared struggles, whether online or in-person. Patricia invites you to connect with her podcast and community at motherhoodinADHD.com.
