brain fart

Does being pregnant really affect your brain?   I have gone to 2 doctors appointments 2 days in a row that was scheduled for the next day.  I am losing my mind.

I have to share my pregnancy brain moment with you lady's.  My mom took me car shopping a few weeks ago and while the guy was filling out the paper work he asked for my cell phone. So what do I do I reach in my pocket and hand him my cell. He looked at me weird and I was like was I not suppose to do that. My mom died laughing she was like he meant the number silly. 0_0 oops lol.

They say BC your body is jacked up with hormones, that "pregnancy brain" is real. It causes your brain to be cloudy at times. Google it lol

It really is true. My memory is horrible I can put my keys in my purse and forget a second later and spend an hour searching. My husband and kids wish they could put gps on everything. He actually makes me keep my wallet in car because I either forget or misplace it and he started taking keys from me as soon as we get in house. I've even came close to walking out house in nightgown to go to appointment one morning could completely forgot to get dresses lol

Lallee, I was wondering where you been lady. I can't remember anything that may have happened last week or earlier, because I always swear those "things" happened many months ago, until my sister tells me otherwise.

It's real. I tried using my car keys to open my front door for 10 minutes. I had a whole list b of things I told my husband but apparently never opened my miuth, just said "that's good,right?" He stared at me like I was crazy and started laughing.

He thinks it's the best pregnancy symptom.  Lol. Hopefully it doesn't last forever.

That's exactly what I told my husband last night.  I can't seem to speak properly and I've forgotten so many things.  I usually have a great memory, but now I seem to have lost it. :)
