Oh, this is one of my favorites.. I totally blank when people passively mention my pregnancy.
When the random guy passed me on the street and said in my ear "somebody's been fuckin'," I totally didn't get what he meant until DH explained that it's because I'm pregnant.
Also, we went to get donuts last week. While she was boxing up our order, the counter girl said "Do you know what you're having?" and I stared blankly for a second and was ABOUT to say "uh.... donuts?" before I realized what she was asking.
I've done all kinds of things, especially putting stuff away in the wrong places, or leaving laundry half done. The best though is that I keep having to ask DH if I actually said something to him out loud or if it was just in my head. He always laughs at me.
It's totally fake, it's just an excuse women use so they don't have to take responsibility for their actions.
Aren't you just a peach today?
Salsera once I very nearly drove off with the gas pump still attached to my car. If it wasn't for the nice man who honked and waved like a crazy person I would have. I also completely lost my ability to make grilled cheese with DD. I couldn't make one without burning it.

Totally happened. I was so startled at first, but now, totally hilarious. And a little gross.

This randomly pops in my head since you first mentioned it and it makes me laugh out loud every time!
I locked DD and myself out of the house during the winter. I just wasn't thinking. My phone was in the car which luckily I had left unlocked so I was able to call a friend whose husband came to pick us up so we could go to their house for dinner.
This friend also happens to be our cat sitter/can you check on the house person so they had a key to the house. DH was out of town for work.
-I bought a 4L of milk...two days in a row because I really thought we had run out, in a 24hr time frame.
-DH asked me to not put dirty dishes in the half of the sink that was empty because he needed to drain noodles or something...and 30 seconds later I put a dirty cutting board in the sink...he just looked at me and slowly asked what he had just asked me not to do.
-I almost forgot I was curling my hair...as I had the curling iron in my hand.
-I also have to check the oven all the time to make sure I remember to turn it off.
Also, I thought @Ylvelill is a regular poster and not a troll, or is that also my baby brain?
This. WTF is going on here? A case of the twat Tuesdays?
I'm still catching up on the thread, but I thought she was a regular too...
This may be TMI but here goes. I thought I was gonna die from laughter when I told H this.
So we were about to DTD and I asked him if our door was open (to the bedroom). He said yes, I then said " well go fuck it!" Totally meant to say "well go close it". He looked at me like what the hell?! We busted out laughing!
Don't know if that was pregnancy brain, or horny brain.
@aliletz - your story of the creepy random guy reminded of a guy who was trying to chat me up at the reference desk during my pretty far along into my last pregnancy.
He was pretty determined so I made an excuse for myself to be off desk. I found out later that my male coworker then turned to the guy and said "just so you know, she's happily married and pregnant." The guy gave him a stupidly big smile and just responded that the married part could be gotten around and he is all about the pregnant part.
Just because someone is a regular doesn't mean they can't be a troll.
Or an asshole.
Or just plain BSC.
Got it. Guess I just don't pay attention to what she types or don't see enough of it. I'm just going to go ahead and blame this lapse on pregnancy brain.
I'm in a virtual training class today and got called on to read, then forgot how to read. I work in finance and I couldn't remember how to read dollar amounts...so I read $16,781.43 as "Sixteen hundred, seven hundred eighty one and forty three dollars." I got a lot of "LOL"s from my considerate classmates who can't see the bump.
I have a terrible time finding the word I'm looking for...like I'll spend 30 seconds blankly staring at the person I'm talking to before I can come up with what I'm trying to say. Either that or I'll say the wrong word like five different times before finally coming up with the right one.
My 7 yr old niece and I were on FaceTime and she says " do you know every day of the week ends in day?" And I stared at her like she was a fucking genius. Pregnancy brain? Maybe, or I need to go back to school
Glad I could help with some entertainment today should have checked in earlier to see what happened but got busy.
@Salsera29 Sorry, I was just responding to your request for some drama. Didn't mean to actually hurt your feelings. Guess me posting every day hasn't made me known enough that people would know that I was completely kidding

You've posted some questionable things in the past. Coming back hours later to say you were "kidding" isn't going to cut it. Guess you posting everyday hasn't taught you that we see through bullshit.
This. And I'm sure you were really busy, after all bed rest is sooooooo boring!
Aww at least someone went and looked up other posts, I feel special. Yeah bed rest is boring however being in the hospital does not mean you have control of all your time.
But since I apparently had already made my way onto some postits it is kinda pointless for me to continue to explain.
I didn't close m car door after returning from lunch one day last week. It was open about 6 inches in the work parking garage. I was super happy the car started since the overhead light had been on for hours.
Saleslady at work told me about how she called a client a "total control freak" and some other things in an email, and CCd someone at the client. We got fired from that account. Oopsie.
I order things from Amazon in weird fits of insomnia where I'm half awake. This week I bought 2 pairs of shoes, a giant conatiner of peanut butter pretzels and deodoranty foot cream.
I might get flamed for this but I must've missed some major drama in previous threads. When I read her post from this thread, I thought she was being sarcastic.
About 20 minutes ago I went to put gas in my car (which I've obviously done a million times before). Instead of pulling the lever to release the gas cap (next to my steering wheel), I pulled the lever to release my seat (down on the floor). Scared the shit out of myself and of course had to look around to make sure I had no students close by (since the gas station is right by school). Not just did it hurt my pride but it hurt my back!
Also, I left my cell phone in the fridge. DH and I figured it out when it started ringing. Luckily that wasn't too long after or I don't know if it would've worked!
@Ylvelill, I don't have a post-it, but I have noticed you have a tendency to write things in a way that make you sound douchey and sanctimommy. If you are just generally a sarcastic person, you need to start working some winks into your statements to make the sarcasm more clear, because clearly a lot of the ladies here aren't sensing the sarcasm.

Yeah, it is a problem I have, even out here irl. Plus a terrible tendency to want to stir the pot. I will work harder at my winking, thank you
Dammit @Ylvelill. I was trying to give you the benefit of the doubt but you're an intentional pot-stirrer. I guess you got what you wanted. If you'd be willing to let that go you could make some strong connections here. It seems you'd rather see us flip our shit instead so I'm totally getting the backlash you got. Wouldn't you rather have support right now?? I'd be going crazy on bed rest, I understand wanting some entertainment but read the "I'm new and hello" thread for that instead of stirring the pot.

Exactly. I suspected you were just responding to my "dare," but there were no indications you were being sarcastic and then you didn't come back...so this happened.
When I had DS1, pregnancy brain, exhaustion, meds, and prudishness all came together in the perfect storm in which I attempted to BF my newborn through a 3-4 inch slit in the top of my hospital gown. I was so confused until the nurse patiently informed me that it was just a hole to make it easier to run monitor wires under the gown.
