is this normal

I kind of feel bad bc I keep forgetting that I'm pregnant. I'm 8 weeks pregnant and have a 13-mo my mind and attention is constantly on her that I always forget I'm pregnant. The first time around I was so careful and always had the thought in mind that I was pregnant

I'm 26 weeks and I forgot all the time. Then I walk by the mirror and am like WHOA BELLY! Oh yeah I'm pregnant. Or I'll be at a restaurant and think oh I want that martini and realize, crap I can't I'm pregnant. I'm so busy with my two other girls it just slips my mind, but at least the pregnancy is flying by. :)

Lol - I still sometimes forget I'm pregnant and I'm 29 weeks :) its probably a good thing cuz it helps the time pass- when I was like 23 weeks I was talking to my sisters about birth control methods and I had to stop and think for a few seconds -- wow when was the last time I had a period? That's weird I don't remember- am I using something? Oh ya I'm pregnant! Haha... yikes :)

You're fine. I kept forgetting I was pregnant in the beginning too. Around the time my stomach was getting bigger id be half asleep and my hand or arm would touch my belly it was so hard and id wake up freaking out then i would finally remember oh yeah im pregnant. But once you get far enough along you won't be able to forget you're body def won't let you.
