Your worst "baby brain" moment thus far?

rayandbrit · February 2013

I guess I'm in a "chatty" mood today, but I just did something stupid that I had to chuckle about & thought you all might want to share your space cadet moments too?

My moment: I just went to put my youngest down for a nap upstairs, and right after my Oldest was just waking up from her earlier nap. They sleep in the same room, so I went upstairs to quickly retrieve my Oldest so she wouldn't keep the youngest up. It wasn't til I got to the bottom of the stairs that I realized I'd spaced out and grabbed the wrong kid (my youngest who I'd JUST put down), leaving my Oldest in her bed. No clue if any of that makes sense, but I just had to shake my head about it.

Haha...that's funny.

I got in line at Target the other day. Then I realized that I didn't like any of the clothes I tried on and I had put them all back and I was in line with an empty cart.

I kept saying Valloween yesterday, instead of Valentines.

I turned on my car and started to reverse out of the garage and forgot to actually open the garage door first. Luckily I noticed before hitting it.

I can't make coherent sentences, ever! If I had a moment that was funny or worth sharing, I probably have forgotten it.

I opened the back door to my car and completely forgot to close it. I've also had a few opps at work- people telling me things and immediately forgetting.

Yeah this! I had to get my boss to repeat instructions 3 times before I could remember exactly what she wanted me to do. And then, after I finished the assignment, I still felt like I had done it wrong. I felt like a complete idiot!

I've put milk in the cupboard where the cereal goes and the cereal in the fridge. Twice.

I set up a playdate for my DD to be picked up from school by her friend's mom. But I still went to pick her up from school at the right time. The teachers looked at me weird, saying I'd sent a note for the other family to take her home. I felt like a dunce. I hadn't announced yet, so they really thought I was a space cadet, but now they understand! Ha!

Luckily I didn't make the opposite mistake by not picking her up one day.

I found garlic in my kitchen gadgets drawer and scissors where my garlic usually is... Lol.

And my DH can finally throw back at me like I have always done to him..." I already told you". Lol

I forgot my car at work.

I know.. how is that possible? Well I am dropped off every single day for work. One day though, when my mom was in town, I wanted to go out for lunch with her and some girls from work, so I asked DH, who needed to go home, to bring mom to my office, and I'd drop him off at work. Later that afternoon, everyone was going to a restaurant close to my house. I thought - hey, I can leave work a little early, and still be home at a regular time since I'll just get DH to pick me up there! I sent him a quick message online telling him I was leaving, and hopped in a co-workers car. When he called the restaurant looking for me, I was angry, I thought, how embarassing that he'd call me when I'm out! I said "just come get me here!".. he asked "how, you have the car". wow. I had to wait at the restaurant until someone was done to bring me back to the office. I was super late getting home that night. I still can't believe he wasn't mad at me.

traia · February 2013

I was talking to a co worker last night, and than realized that i had changed the subject in the middle of my sentence. As i was dazing off, looking outside. And than when i came back to reality, i completely forgot both conversations. Needless to say, she was confused and laughed.

And doesnt know im pregnant!!! Haha

Oh man, this sounds like a nightmare!

Thanks Ladies for sharing yours, it's fun to read through

I feel like everything i do at work is backwards and sometimes i find myself sitting asking "what was i just doing"?

JilllyBean · February 2013

I forgot to shampoo my hair in the shower. About 10am I said to my H, I can't remember if I washed my hair while I was in the shower. He looked at me like I was bonkers. By nighttime I knew I hadn't since it was more oily than usual. Although looked ok in the morning! Ha

AmeliaKris · February 2013

I put frozen waffles back.....in the fridge!

Lilmrslay · February 2013

I left the gas hob burning for nearly 6 hours, which I have NEVER done before. Thank goodness the house didn't burn down.

I've turned on my hair straighteners, had them over heat, remembered I was meant to be straightening my hair, turned them back on, let them over heat and so on for 4 attempts one day.

Words allude me at times, and some come out totally wrong.

I forget what I'm doing and get easily distracted which is very unlike me.

I go into rooms and forget why I'm there, or open a cupboard and have no idea what I'm looking for.

I WANT MY BRAIN BACK!!!!!

catskitch · February 2013

I've been sending stuff to the wrong people at work for signoffs. Happened twice already.

I left one of the front doors open at home after I came in. Luckily the outside door was closed and locked.

I asked SO 3 times in the span of 15 minutes for the debit card so that I could do the change of address form online. SO just opened a new bank account and we don't have the debit card yet...

lol... I put the cereal in the bathroom.

Called a few patients and forgot I was on the phone while it was ringing, so the patients would answer, say hello a few times, and hang up on me. I'd hang up on me too.

Start things and wander away from them... Cooking, work stuff, laundry, I've been striking out the last week or so.

Sammibaybeh · February 2013

I have a remote start on my car... And I used it. I got in the car, put the key in the ignition but forgot to turn it to the on position. I got out of the car, left the keys in there, closed the door safety locks came on. Had to have a friend drive me home while my car was running in the parking lot with my keys in the ignition to go get my spare set.

Hey, I don't mind... The more brain cells I lose the smarter the baby right?! Haha

mauied08 · February 2013

I've done it 3 times already but i cant remember what happen. lol

hintzsm · February 2013

can't remember specifically but I forget words or say the wrong word, start something then walk away, put stuff in the wrong place, forget to flush toilet/start washing machine.

It's most dangerous when I am driving and do stupid things like forgetting to shift. I work as a nurse so it is horrible to try to remember everything all day for all of my patients. That's dangerous too!

I kept saying Valloween yesterday, instead of Valentines.

I'm LOL about Valloween.
