Oops. Pregnancy blunders...

I just realized I have been walking around all day with my maternity tank (under my top) rolled up in the expanse between my boobs and my belly. What embarrassing things have you done today? This week?

    I locked myself out of my apartment this morning, then left my lunch on the stoop outside my apartment, and now have forgotten the access code to my VM which I've used for close to two years

    All my "pregnancy panties" needed washed, so I wore a pre-pregnancy pair. They kept slipping down below my ass all day yesterday. I kept having to covertly shove my hand down my pants to pull them up.

    Note to self: do more laundry!!

    This made me lol.

    It's a daily occurrence that I put my clothes on wrong. My husband is constantly checking me before I leave for work to make sure my shirt and shoes and right. Uggg pregnancy brain!

    This is the worst!!! I've shamefully done this more than once...

    I'm not sure how embarrassing this is but I've left my keys in the ignition at least 6-8 times during this pregnancy...3 of those times have been with the car running while I pump gas....oops!

    @KayDeeKay81‌ try the Crocs. They are great! I think these are Kaycees? My DH makes fun of me but I don't really care right now. I think they look good enough to get through the next couple of months. :)

    As far as my blunders.... I was picking DD up from daycare the other day and we got in someone else's car. No joke. My kid was crawling into another kid's car seat and it took like 5 minutes for me to recognize that it was not our vehicle. So embarrassing!

    I second the pee issues. I literally have to cross my legs to keep from peeing my pants when I sneeze (standing or sitting). So awful!

    The peeing is awful. I've had a cold for a week and the coughing requires me to stop walking, clench and cough. And sometimes it's not enough. I'll go "Oh no" and SO will say "Did you tinkle a little?"

    This!  I wore crocs to work for months and months (feet are now too swollen) and they're great.  Plus, they have lots of new styles that aren't ugly... well, not as ugly as the original.  My only advice: if you get rubber ones, make SURE you get ones with holes in them somewhere.  Mine for work are non-ventilated and by the end of the night my feet smell worse than DH's.  Not pretty.

    I'm wearing my running shoes at work (not acceptable) But I don't care - cause my back hurts and I need more support that my flats can give. I am seriously considering black Crocs for the remainder of this pregnancy.

    I bought a pair of sketchers they are flats and have a little velcro strap with rhinestones.. I wore them last pregnancy and still have them.

    I do not wear headphones around at work anymore because of the walking farts... getting up to fax something is dangerous!

    I love this thread with my whole heart because it makes me feel so normal. I constantly lose my train of thought all day. One second I'm headed to do something, the next I'm standing there wondering what the heck I'm doing. The other night I went to the grocery store with DH's debit card and when I went to put in his pin I put in a combination of numbers I don't think I've ever used in my life. Second try I got his pin wrong again with a more familiar set of numbers, finally 3rd try was a charm. I think the clerk at the checkout was wondering if I was on drugs.

    I just forget what I'm talking about as I'm speaking. Constantly. It's getting so bad that I get nervous talking to clients because I know it's going to happen and I'll look like an idiot. 


    Also, can't remember what things are called. I end up describing them. It's annoying. 
    Alllllll the time. Usually I try to save face and make something up, but sometimes I have to just admit I've lost my train of thought.

    I forget what I'm talking about in the middle of my sentences constantly! I also drop EVERYTHING, which is at best hard to pick up, and at worse embarassing as hell. So far the worst have been not one, but two lemon meringue pies in the middle of the grocery store, and a bottle of red nail polish on a white tile floor at the nail place. Ugh, my mom has banned me from touching things when we go out together.

    I sneezed and peed my pants a little in front of my 5 year old. He thought it was the funniest thing, which made me laugh and have to race to the toilet to pee more
    Sneeze-peeing is the worst. I think the technical term is "snizzing."

    Oh good grief. Thank you for the laughs on this! I needed it after today.

    1. I think I've forgotten nearly ALL of the English language in recent weeks... in public I resort mostly to pointing and staring with a blank expression on my face.
    2. I've come to DREAD sneezing... ever... unless I'm already in the bathroom.
    3. I've learned to accept that wanting to eat Little Hostess products is a new part of life for me.
    4. Oh, and if something falls on the floor? That's it's new home until someone else can grab it. At 6'2", I feel like a damn pregnant giraffe trying to bend down past my thighs. It's practically a medical miracle I don't pass out from lack of blood being able to flow that far.
    (And that's all just in the last week!!)

    I had to wear my prepregger undies too for the same reason. I realized when I got home I was walking around with panty lines all day. Normally, this is a major no no but I really just didn't care and then proceeded to do it the next day.

    I have gotten pretty unashamed about burping, umm, belching, at home. The other night at work I thought I was alone, so I let out a big one, and then I realized that one of my team members was still there. I just pretended that nothing happened.

    I randomly forget the name of things. Lol! This pregnancy hasn't been as bad, but with my daughter I dropped EVERYTHING. Sadly the peeing issue started when I got pregnant with my daughter and never got better. I peed myself while picking something up on the driveway just before getting pregnant with this baby.. Like needed to change my pants asap peed. Lol

    I almost went to work without my shoes, just hopped in the car barefoot. I also found a bag of lettuce in our pantry, not in the refrigerator a day after I went grocery shopping.

    Yes. Yes to all of this!
    1. I pee when I sneeze, and I don't even care who knows it anymore. (Put a bowling ball on YOUR bladder and see what happens when YOU sneeze!)
    2. I also suffer from pregnancy brain. Yesterday I forgot DS name for like an hour. I just called him 'little man' to cover it up. My husbands a dr of psychology, and apparently pregnancy brain is a real proven thing. Who would have guessed!?!
    3. I cry. Like spontaneously burst into tears all of time. A commercial, a show, I see something happy or sad... Open the flood gates.
    My poor husband just looks at me like I may cry everytime he speaks.

    I'm blaming my backing out of the driveway and hitting a telephone pole on my pregnancy brain. Cause I've lived in my house for almost 7 years and never hit the stupid thing before.

    I am going to a wedding today and bought a dress when I was 6 weeks pregnant one size too big because I thought that would be plenty of room to grow. Well obviously that wasn't the case because I tried the dress on last night and while it zippered just fine we were not able to unzip it because one of the zipper teeth at the top of the zipper popped out. Eventually we wound up cutting the zipper and popping it the rest of the way down. Oops! Good thing I brought a back up dress just in case

    1. Peeing when sneezing ALWAYS. So much laundry.
    2. So much crying at work and public places. I know it isn't really a blunder, but MAN it feels like one. And for things I would never cry about pre-pregnancy. Hormones are real, and they are scary.

    I took DD2 to the doctor a couple of weeks back.  They wanted me to verify the last 4 of my ssn.  I gave the receptionist the digits, and she promptly asked for them again.  Thinking she didn't hear me I just repeated what I had said.  She then tells me it doesn't match what's in the computer, and they must have something wrong.  It was at that very second I realized I had given her the last four digits of my phone number.  Oy!
