Yes. But on the other hand, how many women have their own symptoms dismissed, or become invisible once they are mothers. I wonder whether some of these cases are due to feeling unseen, driving that desire for attention. Dunno. Am speaking out of my arse, but feeling unheard and unseen is soemthing I think a lot of women, particularly mothers, might identify with.

In my experience, the minute I had my daughter, I became invisible to caretakers/doctors. It was all about the baby and now that she’s old enough where I could advocate for my own health, I’ve become so accustomed to not taking care of myself that it doesn’t occur to me. I’m just now trying to fix that by scheduling appointments with much needed specialists, especially GYN, which I have neglected for several years
