This is a terrible intro to 3rd tri!

So I guess pregnancy brain has come to a new low for me!  I had a terrible day yesterday and I'm not even sure I can blame it on pregnancy brain because it is what it is.  I backed into my husband's new truck in my own driveway yesterday morning.  I could not believe what I had just done, it seemed to happen in slow motion like my brain was still half asleep.  My dh had some equipment in the driveway that I have come close to hitting before, so I was looking right at the equipment to not hit that and backed right into his truck which he parked behind me (he never does). I knew his truck was there, but it didnt register at all in my head!  I was so upset! Dh was of course very mad because "he's told me to look behind me when I back up many times and I might have hit a kid". Well that just made me cry even more! He's now ok and I'm better today but still so mad at myself for such a preventable accident.  Now we have to spend a lot of money fixing his vehicle instead of using that money for baby items.  Every time I look at that dent (its way bigger than just a dent) it makes me feel horrible and I wish I could redo the day.  Every time I thought about it yesterday I started crying feeling like an idiot who caused us alot of money and headache ugh :(  Dh has been nice about it today, bc he knew how bad I felt about it.  We found a friend to do the bodywork.  I still can't believe I did that!

    Awwww.....I'm so sorry kaybee. That sucks. At least your DH is being nice about it now. Accidents happen, no two ways about it. I'm sure everything will be fixed and back to normal soon enough. As long as you were okay that was all that matters.

    On a positive note...guess what!? We are about 3 months away from meeting our little ones!!! That is something to be happy and thankful for!!! :) Hope you enjoy the rest of your Friday, and your weekend. Don't let this little incident get you down...it could have been a lot worse. Just a bump in the road of life! :) Love to you hun!

    I messed up our new car too. It was my hormones I punched my visor out of frustrations and cracked the mirror in our brand new outland I feel like such a jerk. DH has been super cool about it but I just feel like the worlds biggest a$$.

    Thanks so much Babybear :) I was felt so terrible about it yesterday but much better today, we are getting it fixed and everything will be ok. I had a few more contractions yesterday morning bc I was upset so I knew I had to calm down and just deal with it lol.  Me and dh got to see our lo at our u/s yesterday so by the afternoon we were both feeling better. In the big scheme of things, its not what matters.  But I do know I need to be more careful in the future!

    FWIW, I pretty much did the same thing to my H's SUV the first month I had my new one.  I was on the phone (bad of me) and since we have a narrow driveway, the backup camera always beeps, so I didn't pay any attention until just before I hit the back corner of his car. 

    Luckily it was just a small scratch to his car, but I broke my back tail light cover.  I think it was around $300 to fix it, not to mention my car was brand new!  I kind of wish I'd at least had my pregnancy to blame it on!

    Just a little story to make you feel a little better. About 10 years ago my mom (who up until last year was never even involved in an accident and is a good driver) backed out of the garage and right into my aunt's car (she was living with us at the time). My stepdad worked at a bodyshop and took it to be fixed. The day he brought it back home, my mom was running to the store before dinner and backed right into it again! So it can happen and not even just to those with pg brain!
