My short term memory is non- existent. What is going on?

I am actually kind of freaking out a bit. In fact, it is so bad that as I am thinking about something or reading it I KNOW I will forget it in two seconds.

Anyone else have this?

Re: My short term memory is non- existent. What is going on?

  • Yeah, especially since DC#1. DH doesn't get it, but I keep reminding him that I have so many things on my mind constantly that unless I commit something to memory intentionally these days, I won't remember something for 2 seconds. He is one of those who doesn't believe your brain can be affected by things like pregnancy or childbirth, so it leads to an argument every so often. I hate when it happens, though, b/c I used to pride myself on being on top of everything and remembering every detail.
