You know you're sleep deprived when...

ocnfish4 · January 2014

You say you're going to refill your water bottle and you walk over to the copier and just stare at the machine before realizing that's not where water comes from.

How do you know you're sleep deprived ladies?

You are at the Dunkin Donuts drive through window. You count out 93 cents of change that is sitting in your car cup holder for your $1.93 coffee. Then instead of handing the change to the clerk you throw it all back into the change holder.

You get ready for work and leave the house only to realize you put on your bedroom slippers instead of your sneakers and forgot to take off your head scarf. Then once you get yourself straight you get in your car and try to crank it up with your bagel. I got cream cheese all over the damn ignition. Suffice to say, I was late to work that day lol.

I started pumping the other day. Didn't connect the bottles to the pump parts.

@ravenclaw1 that's funny! I hope you caught yourself before the milk started flowing!

Thankfully I caught it after the first few drops and not at let down. That would've been a nightmare.

Especially since I was pumping at work. In my car.

You forget to pull down your underwear when going pee in the MOTN.

My you try to stick a paci in your sleeping baby's mouth (or eye, or nose), because you thought you heard them crying in your sleep.

You forget to open the garage door before backing out (that one was bad. I came within an inch of hitting the door).

You forget to pay TWO bills in one month even though you have the money in your bank account and always paid bills early pre-baby. Not good!

I did this too. Call them tell them you just had a baby and it got missed in the confusion. They'll get rid of late fees.

When you throw the babies diaper in their hamper and babies washcloth/clothes in the trash.

When DH's alarm pisses the baby off and you start to have murderous thoughts towards your partner.

Or your own alarm because dh doesn't hear one so you have to wake him up after getting up. As soon as I hear it it's a mad dash to get it turned off. Some mornings I'm lucky enough that I wake up close enough to it I can switch to my phone which is much gentler to wake up to but I don't trust it over night.

When you order lunch from a restaurant's mobile app and then forget to pick it up until they call you to ask if you're still coming.

When you boil water for tea and then pour it into a mug, but never put the tea bag in. I've enjoyed room temp water from a mug twice this week.

When you put leftovers into the microwave and forget about them until you try heating up something else the next day.

I have done half of these.

This morning I forgot to pack milk for LO. I tried to start my car with the house key. I tried to open my house with my work key. Yesterday I stared at the stroller with the car seat in it and wondered what was missing. LO, she was in the walker, but that can't go for car rides. I asked DH what he wanted for dinner via text. He works 24 hour shift and won't be home for dinner.

When you mistakingly pour apple cider into a boiling pot of pasta instead of the glass on the counter beside the oven.

When you bring everything you need to pump at work...except for the lids to the bottles..ugh

blond1230 · January 2014

When every trip alone to the store takes double the time because you can't remember what you need even with a list.

When you can't find you're phone all day and then lo and behold it was safe and sound in the freezer.

I did that once when I started back to work and didn't notice until I felt the wet spots on my lap.

When you repeatedly tell yourself mentally to do something but leave your bedroom at least 15 times and do everything but what you needed to remember to do until you're in bed then have to get up and do it.

When you still haven't been able to find the tooth paste you somehow misplaced a couple months after baby was born...

I hope you bought one to replace it

Ive done that, I ended up using a washed out dasani bottle to store the milk in. Pretty ghetto but it worked!

I did this once while pumping, I have one over producer boob and one under producer. I accidentally attached one of the little 2.5 oz bottles (meant for the under producer) to my over producer boob. Long story short I was so busy working that I neglected to notice I had been leaking milk from that side for at least ten min.. Milk ALL over my leg and all in the tubing from it getting backed up.. always fun to walk around the office with a huge breastmilk stain!!

I know I'm sleep deprived when I take a handful of M&Ms to bed last night only to wake up with melted M&Ms all in my hair & in my hair!! A shower & scrub and my palm is still green & orange. Thank goodness for black pillow cases!
