I don't know the details of your situation but I thought you'd like to know there's a name for that: dysphoric milk-ejection reflex, or D-MER. (here's more info: http://postpartumprogress.com/for-moms-who-feel-bad-before-breastfeeding-this-may-be-why) You mentioned being upset at other times as well, and feeling anxiety both during pregnancy and postpartum. Please know that postpartum anxiety is almost as common as postpartum depression, and it is fully treatable. Anyway, I'm sorry you had such a difficult 18 months and I wanted you to know about D-MER in case you didn't. You're not alone. - K I notice you mentioned specifically feeling depression while breastfeeding.

I found your site from your posts on Offbeat Home, and I really enjoyed them! I'm in Berkeley, so I particularly appreciate that working in the city means you don't get home until 8, and that really CAN be a challenge. A happy porky (belated) Valentines to you and yours!
