My brother sent me a picture via text today of my niece who is almost 1. It was for my birthday. Just a super cute picture of her with a big grin with a caption "HAPPY BIRTHDAY." and my reply?? "Who is that?" I legit asked my brother "who is that?" to my own niece! He goes "it's *name*" i covered the whole thing up by saying "i know. I'm kidding i meant she is getting so big i hardly recognized her." real smooth.
I was playing a board game and two words were next to each other and I couldn't make sense of them . The words were cook and smuggler, to everyone's amusement at the party, I kept saying cock-smuggler, thinking the words were related.
I'm a mess! Super forgetful, scatterbrained, and yesterday I backed our car into a telephone pole...right outside our house...the pole has been there since we moved in 5 years ago!
I'm just about 10 weeks and it's definitely getting worse. I'm on lunch at work and I just pushed the stop button about a dozen times instead of the start button on the microwave. I was clearly reading it and I use the microwave all the time, but I was so frustrated it wouldn't work. This could definitely get interesting over the next thirty weeks!
I have been trying to suppress my laughter while reading these at work. They are really funny and I can so relate.
Mostly, I am having a hard time finding the right word. Sometimes my whole sentence just gets jumbled (although of course I can't think of an example right now). I'll say to DH when this happens while right in the middle of sentence, I can't talk right now.

Today after my appt I called my husband to give him an update.
Me: So since the bleeding isn't as heavy, real bedrest isn't necessary. Just nothing to get my heart rate up. Oh and pelvic rest until the bleeding starts.
DH: Until the bleeding starts?
Me: Yeah. That's what I just said.
DH: Are you sure that's ok?
Me: What? Oh no. Stops. When the bleeding stops!
Because I'm totally trying to do it while actively bleeding apparently.
So, I go to get dressed today, and I put my shirt on.... I all ready put a shirt on. I realized I was, then, wearing two shirts.
Last night, I went to feed my cat. While I was feeding him, I realized how hungry I was. I went to make myself a bowl of cereal. I poured my cats's food into a bowl and added milk. I almost ate it. Seriously about to get my head examined.
I went out to breakfast with DH this morning and he got a fruit bowl. He asked if I wanted any and I took some pineapple. I was *this close* to blowing on it and I realized what I was about to do and how ridiculous that was - especially because my reason for blowing on it was I thought it might be sour. o_O
I explained to my mom that it's better to put a new hot tub in their 3 season porch than on a second deck because "we live in Minnesota and you'll have to deal with health problems" I ligit thought twice about it after I said it and thought it was correct but sounded funny until my DH said, "you mean weather problems?"
I think this may be my favorite thread, ever. Lol Ive had a few things here and there, including losing my phone about 50 times in the last few days. Yesterday I legitimately walked to my fridge, to the counter, to my pantry, to my freezer and back again about 5 times. I was basically turning in circles. My husband asked me what I was doing. I told him that I couldn't find what I was looking for. He asked what I was looking for... And I didn't remember.
I was supposed to attend my aunt's housewarming party on Saturday and I showed up at 6pm. Apparently, the party was at noon and I completely missed it. I swore up and down that someone told me the wrong time.
Ive had this happen so many times already! At work one morning I had an employee come in and ask how much something was worth to sell and I literally looked at that person like "what the hell is that?"... I've been a specialist in that product for over 5 years, I should've known immediately! Then the other night I told my husband, you need to let me mow your hair, it looks terrible.. Ya, he wasn't game for that after he told me what I had said... Damn pregnancy brain..
Hi all! So glad I saw this post. I was wanting to find out if someone feels the same way as me. I have been very stressed out at work. I forget things and make all kind of mistakes at home & at work. I would put wrong seasoning in foods. I tried to bake some brownie for my husband the other day and forgot to mix the egg with the flour. Once it was done, you could see the egg in the brownie. I ended up throw the brownie away. At work, I did tell my pregnancy to my managers (not co-worker), but still making errors that I'm normally not making is just make me feel bad. Of course my managers have a few talks with me . . .
So, I usually take evening showers if I go to the gym in the afternoon. I took a shower last night, and I think I forgot use shampoo to wash my hair! Lol
My husband and I switched cars today. I moved the carseat from my SUV to his car. The plan was for me to pick up dinner while he was getting lumber for our deck. I forgot to move my purse over too, so I had no way to pay for dinner, and the place closed before he could meet me there ....on Father's Day....
We are going out of town this weekend, my husband normally packs because he gets off early and the past several times we have gone out of town he has forgotten my glasses. Today I put my glasses by my makeup and told him "Please remember to forget my phone charger"
To be fair, I was unplugging my phone while I was saying that.
[I wander into room where OH is] Him: ".... Yes? You need something?" Me: "I don't know..." Him: "How are you feeling?" Me: "I DON'T EVEN KNOW. I'm hungry, nauseous, my legs feel hairy, my teeth feel dirty, and I'm tired all at the same time. I'm so confused. How do I do things and what order do I do them in?"
I tried to open the front door of our house with the SUV key (it's square and one of the button ones you have to flip out of the fob). DH just watched, waiting for me to realize what Was happening. Needless to say that moment didn't come for me. Instead he started dying laughing and had to try and explain to me what I was doing wrong.
Last night I went to brush my teeth and used my DD training toothpaste. I couldn't figure out why it tasted so sweet until I told my DH about it and he pointed out that our toothpaste is minty and her toothpaste is sweet.

@mrshuse525, it could have been worse. My girlfriends and I went on a mini road trip after high school graduation. one of them brushed her teeth with vagisil.

The other day I went to punch out at work and couldn't remember my 3 digit code. I had to move aside and let 2 other co-workers punch in their code first and then I remembered my code. They just laughed and said I could blame it on pregnancy brain, lol.
Garbage pick up was yesterday and we forgot to put ours out. I was hoping we hadn't missed the truck yet, but when we were leaving the house I saw they had already taken the neighbors. I said to my husband, "oh, I guess they did pick up the mail already." He was confused so I repeated myself. Took me 3 tries to realize what I was saying was actually incorrect.
So many words lately that I use on a regular basis and suddenly can't remember when I need to. My brain tries to compensate by using what it thinks is a good enough second choice to mean the same thing, and usually it's not even close.
The worst one for me so far was a couple days ago. I was making an appointment to get my oil changed on my car. A car that I have owned for almost 5 years! He asked me the make and model. I said Ford......uh....uh I'm so sorry I'm pregnant and apparently having pregnancy brain. He started naming off models and finally got to mine. I said "that's it!" Lucy style from Peanuts Christmas movie. I was so excited that I finally remembered the kind of car I have. I feel like an idiot now but he kind of chuckled and said his wife has been there too.
This morning I stood at the counter trying to pour my sons cup of milk for at least 3 minutes. I was standing there trying to pour but I had not removed the lid and I just could not figure out why it wasn't working.

Ugh, I totally understand this. I have a "brain block" when I'm searching for certain words anyway, and now it's just so much worse. It's frustrating, to say the least.
It's amazing how the moments just keep coming as this pregnancy goes on! I've worked in my office for almost a year. I forgot how to open the Internet on my computer (just the Google Chrome icon). I had to walk away because I was so frustrated.
Yesterday I was cleaning up the house and trying to do laundry since I'm going out of town tomorrow. Well I went to go switch the clothes from the washer to the dryer and to my surprise they weren't there! I went back to the bedroom thinking I hadn't put them in the washer yet and must have forgotten. Not there either. I searched everywhere and in my doing so I picked up an applesauce pouch my DD dropped on the ground to throw away. Well, there were my clothes. I had thrown them in the trash for some reason. I felt like the biggest idiot lol

Immigrations officer: "Where are you coming from?"
Me: "New York."
Both she and OH gave me an odd look for about 10 seconds, waiting for me to realize what I had said but instead...
Me: "Wait no, JFK. Because there's 3 airports. I'm sorry."
[5 more seconds pass.]
Immigrations officer: "No... where are you coming FROM?"
I swear OH could see the gears turning in my head because I was about to start explaining where we were from originally...
OH: "Iceland and Denmark."
Me: "Why didn't she ask where we went to???"
OH: "Wut."
