  Know what you mean ... takes me a long while to remember and when I do, takes about 2 weeks to finalize the order because I can't remember if there was something else to get.

  I constantly forget when I'm saying to clients when I'm on the phone at work. I now have a prepared list beforehand so I don't stutter over my words lol.

  Mommy brain is terrible, but its still better than pregnancy brain.

   

   I was just thinking back to other day to when I was about 8 months pregnant and had run (okay, waddled) out to the car to go to the store real quick and had hopped in the car, paused cause something didn't seem right, remembered, oh yea! I gotta put the keys in!, put the keys in, paused cause something still didn't seem right, and then realized I was sitting in the passenger seat... Yea, that was  the point I realized I was just out of commission till after the baby was born. :P

  Oh, pregnancy brain....  How I don't miss you.  :-)

  Finally remembered my Amazon items: salad spinner and garage door remote.  How's that for random?

  I feel like I've been missing part of my brain for 6.5 years now...since my first child was born.  It has just gotten progressively worse with each additional child.  Now I feel like I have about half a brain left.  I cannot remember anything and have started talking to myself...."Now, what was I doing?" 

   I also feel like I have ADD.  I cannot complete one task without getting sidetracked and starting 3-4 other tasks in the process.  I think it is just that everywhere I look around the house, there is so much that needs done, picked up, cleaned, or put away :-)

  I never noticed a problem with pregnancy brain, but I do have a full blown case of Mommy brain...I used to make fun of my Mom for being forgetful, but now I keep my mouth shut cause I do it too...karma is a meanie!

  Thank God it's not just me! I feel like a portion of my brain, a very functional portion, is dedicated solely to DD. thinking about her, worrying about her, shopping for her lol. Apparently, that part was really useful before because now I'm kind of a mess. I totally agree with PP about cutting my own Mom some slack now!
