Pregnancy brain

I just wore my Ugg slippers out of the house to Home Depot.

Yesterday I gave my sister what I thought was our gate code, but was really the last four digits of my DH SS#.

What's your latest pregnancy brain moment?

  • My husband and I were watching a tv show and I commented something to the fact that I liked the character a lot and my husband jokingly goes well he has a great name! And It never dawned on me that the character Brandon shares the same first name of my husband lol It had never crossed my mind the whole hour of the show

    I randomly blurt out "wait, what" "what?" < whenever ever I'm driving with someone I fee like I had something to say but couldn't remember lol
  • The 'like the name but not for my bebe' thread reminded me of this, too. In a recent conversation, my mom had suggested Connor as a boys name. And I told her we had considered it and liked it but weren't going to use it. She asked why, and I drew a total blank. Completely forgot about too popular, completely forgot about too many 'k' sounds... Just forgot everything.

    Add the fact that I forgot this example to use in this thread earlier as another preg brain moment.

  • I had to ask my DH which toothbrush was mine and was mortified to think I may have been using the wrong one for about 3 weeks.
  • I forgot why I was standing in the bathroom. A few minutes later my D/H asked how everything was going and it was then, that I remembered that I needed to use the bathroom.
  • I've taken to wearing my husband's boxers and white v necks around the house....just took a bath and was walking through the living room to go throw some clothes in the washer and he looks at me and starts laughing hysterically. I had the boxers on backwards. I also just realized that I was so busy with putting together the dresser for the nursery I forgot to eat lunch.
  • I took my daughter with me to run errands the other day and when we got there I realized I still had on my fuzzy, hot pink slippers. Luckily I had flip flops in the trunk!
  • Could not find my keys anywhere this morning ! Still have no idea, I had to call into work , I couldn't go in !! My husband will be home soon with the spare !! Hoping they are in my car !!!!!
  • I thought I had lost the pickle on my plate. Then realized I had already eaten it. (Geeze that is so cliche). Also, I almost left the house barefoot for work on Thursday.

    I save my pickles for the 'dessert', lol

    I texted a friend to say i wouldn't be able to make it to a birthday party... Apparently I had already missed it the week before. Ahhh! (Not me)
  • With it being little league baseball season I walked down to the concession stand with my niece and MIL to get food and DH runs down to get napkins due to nephew getting sick and I handed him the candy bar he asked for and he looked at me every confused and said he asked for a cheeseburger luckily the woman at the window understood the pregnancy brain before I could even say anything and took back the candy bar and gave me the cheeseburger
  • Not quite as fun, but I am constantly forgetting if I've taken my prenatal vitamin or my Zantac.. I literally sat down with the Zantac bottle last night, then asked DH if he saw me take one a few minutes before bc I honestly could not remember..
  • Put my scrubs in the locked return bin with my wallet in them. So fun because no one has access to the bin on nights! Oh well.

    I've had to make a chart and check off when I take them otherwise I can't remember at all.

    I have a 'To-Do' action item on each and every day if the calendar on my phone. Once I take my prenatal, I click the little box. Once I take my iron, I click the little box. Its ridiculous how much I rely on those little boxes, and how much I get a small jolt of satisfaction each and every time I click one. Not so much fun, adding them into the calendar. Since its a to-do and not appointment, I can't set them over a bunch of days at once. Literally Must. Go. Into. Each. Day. And. Create. A. New. One.

  • I was having lunch with my cousin the other day and I remarked on how salty my food was but that it was still so good! Then she told me to be careful because I might end up with edema. I was like, "That's fine, I need to have a good poop." She looked at me all weird and said, "What does that have to do with swelling?!"

    OMG. I confused the word 'edema' for 'enema'. Two TOTALLY different things and they don't even sound the same. So embarrassing!

    I set an alarm on my phone to take prenatals, but I tend to push snooze and then forget what the heck I did. I should probably make it a to-do!

    That's exactly why I use to-do's and not appointments. I would also swipe the snooze or dismiss and forget about it. I need to click that box.

  • When I returned home from running errands the other day, I parked the car, got my things, and started walking toward the back door. Then I realized I left the car running. One of my many pregnancy brain mishaps!
  • ^ I had a similar problem this morning, I thought the bar of soap was my shampoo and put it on my hair. Whoops
  • Y'all. I just now had to run into my kitchen and pull out the potato I had in the oven baking because I forget to punch holes in it so it wouldn't explode while cooking. Thankfully it had only been 20 minutes and hadn't yet exploded, so I poked holes in it and put it back in. Could you imagine? X_X

  • Well I forgot I told my sister in law I would babysit while she went to her appointment(she is due in May) to op it off I was halfway through a movie at the theater with my sister. So didn't get to see the end of my movie and my sister in law was probably late to her appointment. Worst thing ever :( I am never late and for some reason I am kinda pissed about having to leave the movie.
  • I left my front door wide open yesterday and I live on a busy street. Today I lost an important big check of my husband. I can't find for the life of me. So over this!!!!
  • So I've been to Target three times in three days because I keep forgetting things and buying things I already have. Tonight I technically took two showers in one. Washed my hair and my body two times. I'm so out of it.
  • I realized after I was dressed and putting on makeup that I forgot to wash my hair and I needed to wash my hair... I wanted to cry but knew not getting back in the shower would have made my day worse!
