Pregnancy brain

poofwok

I'm currently standing outside like a jackass next to my car in the Walmart parking lot. I locked myself out of course. Currently waiting on H and DS to come to my rescue. 

I've honestly been a hot mess this last week in forgetting lots of things and being disorganized. 

Anyone else have pregnancy brain rear its ugly head yet??

This morning I started the coffee maker and forgot to put in the grounds. Didn't notice until I came back to a pot of hot water. That's all I've got so far..

I have nothing for this time around (yet) but last pregnancy I ordered takeout from a healthy restaurant, went there, paid, then drove 20 minutes back to my hotel before I realized I never actually grabbed the food. 

I I ended up at the drive thru at Arby's because I was too embarrassed to go back.

Mine started a few days before I even found out I was pregnant. We went on a camping trip, which I was in charge of packing for, and I forgot nearly everything important. And then cried about it. And the pregnancy brain continues...

Haha I did that two weeks ago. My husband just said not to make it a habit and laughed at me lol.

My accu lady said it's the real deal and not in my head.  She was a doula and said the added blood flow can cause foggy brain.  

I cant form words some days! It's terrible

I could not find the cheese today to make a sandwich and I was on the brink of tears when I noticed veggies in the cheese drawer. I checked the veggie drawer and there was my cheese! 

I'm going to call it pregnancy brain but in reality I've done similar things before and this is my first time being pregnant lol.

I was telling H about a story about someone getting taken away in an ambulance. Except I kept calling it a limousine. I said it two or three times before catching myself. I was getting really frustrated with him, saying "Yes! They got taken away in a limousine. What's so confusing about that?!"

I left the pasta in the pan while I ate. 
Hope H likes blackened ravioli....

My latest was yesterday. I put my car in reverse in the drive thru after getting our food. Luckily I caught myself before I took my foot off the break.

I went into the gas station, paid for water and gas, got in my car and drive off without pumping me gas. Didn't realize it until my gas light popped on.

I printed tickets for the ball game today that I got DH for Father's Day. They were for yesterday's game.

I almost said "thank you" to the self checkout machine at target today.

I've mostly just been having a lot of, "what was I doing again/why am I here now?" at work... Although I've noticed I've gotten clumsier. Like I've always been kind of a klutz, but it's getting kind of bad now.

I have to blame a tired brain because I think I am more affected by fatigue at the moment. I did manage to lose and then gain a week. I knew I was 7 weeks, I follow the whole ticker change. I some how thought I was turning 8 weeks tomorrow. I am 9 weeks. I either counted 7 twice or forgot sometime after last Tuesday. Not a bad screw up, I am glad to be further!

Yes.... forgot my entire ziplock baggie of makeup when I went on vacation. It wouldn't have been a big deal but my contacts were in there. I had to have it shipped overnight to the hotel lol.

Also- went to my parents house for the night and forgot my contacts AGAIN. And my glasses. My DH and I each had a car so my DH had to drive an hour home, get my contacts, drive an hour back and then I drove home. OOPS!

I constantly find myself in a room and forgetting why I went in there.
We hosted a 4th of July party and I was drinking diet soda, I never said I was drinking rum in it but a few people assumed I was so a friend mentioned I must have been buzzed to keep forgetting what I was doing. It worked as a nice cover.

Panicked all week that the flowers on my zucchini plants weren't opening.  Bought new fertilizer, watered like crazy, etc., and then remembered that zucchini flowers only open in the early morning.

Tried to put the vinegar cap on the olive oil bottle. Twice.

These had me laughing so hard. I hope for my enjoyment there is more pregnancy brain.

For me, the other night it was getting late, husband and I were relaxing on the couch. I suddenly jumped up and took off to kitchen, when I got there I just stood looking around. Husband yelled in, what's wrong, are you getting something to snack on? I had no clue what I was doing so I just turned around and went back to the couch. I still don't know what was going on.

So I had 2 things that happened just today!! Whoa buddy. 
So I've been napping often and today I thought my husband fell asleep on our couch and I curled up and tried napping too. The kids were getting rowdy and wouldn't settle down so I asked them to go sit in timeout and fell back asleep. Then this really happened, I woke up while my daughter was changing the channel and I asked her why she wasn't still sitting in timeout. She asked, "we are in time out?" I said "yes be quiet daddy is sleeping." She said "wait, you put us in timeout?" I said "I thought so", and as I was becoming coherent I looked around and realized how crazy I sounded. I definitely did not put my kids in timeout lol it was soooo weird. 
Then I set out chicken for supper and realized I didn't have much to go with it. We ended up having a type of blackened chicken I do, with boxed macaroni and cheese. Humph... my husband and son didn't care but my daughter thought I was joking until we sat down to eat and said "we really are eating chicken and macaroni and cheese" lol its been a long day for us.

Last night I couldn't find the remote. 
Remebered I had left in in the kitchen, walked into the kitchen and couldn't remember why I was in there. 
Sat down and reached for the remote.....

After eating chips & salsa the other day I discovered that I forgot to put the salsa in the fridge. Shaking my head at the mild pregnancy brain moment, I proceeded to put move things around in the fridge for the chips. Closed the fridge and realized the salsa was still on the counter and the chips were in the fridge. Ugh!

Not as hilarious as some but pregnancy brain is in full force for me.

I left my purse at the gym after I went to cancel my membership (moving in less than a month) yesterday - thankfully they had it in a back office when I realized what I'd done and nothing was missing. And then today I forgot clothing in the bathroom of our hotel room. DH explicitly asked "are you sure we have everything?" I was all "yep" - got 20 minutes away, realized what I'd forgotten and turned around to go get the stuff. I told him that when we move and are stopping in hotel rooms he better not trust me when I say we've got everything - he needs to do a check too...

I am literally LMAO! I almost put my cell phone in the fridge. I think I was going to get something to drink, and proceeded to place my cell phone on the fridge shelf...then as I was shutting the door I said" hey, wait a minute..." oopsie. lol
