Memory problems??
So does anyone else have problems with memory lately? I feel like the baby is sucking my brain away. I keep forgetting so many little things. Luckily, it hasn't gotten me in to too much trouble yet - but one of these days I am going to forget something really important!
A friend of mine had twins a year ago and I know for a fact when she was pregnant she forgot stuff all the time - I remember her telling me the same stories multiple times because she kept forgetting she already told me.
Is this a normal symptom for so early in the pregnancy? Also, I can't figure out if it's actually my memory getting bad or if being pregnant just occupies my mind so much that I just don't think about anything else.

Hilarious! I'm not there yet but my memory normally is horrid. My best friend had ridiculous memory issues throughout her entire pregnancy. She said her 'pregnancy brain' regularly experienced 'brain farts'! Silly lady...The worst thing is, she said they got worse after her little one arrived!!! Eek, I can't imagine what I will be like once the forgetfulness kicks in!
Me too!! I am SO forgetful! I will step away from my desk and forget what I was working on when I get back. Someone will call needing something and I will forget it until hours later when something will trigger my memory. I'm surprised I remember where I park everyday LOL!
i'm usually an organization-freak, i usually write everything down and usually remember anything I write down, you will see big lists and notes all over our home. Now, it doesn't matter whether I write down stuff or not - i can barely remember anything. DH is teasing me so much saying that if you are like this at this stage, wonder what will happen to you when the baby finally gets here in 7 months.
Oh my gosh, I am an idiot, not only am I running onto walls as I stated in my post I am forgetting everything. It is mainly a problem at work since I need to remember peoples orders.
It is definitely normal, I was the same way with my son. I think every pregnant women I know get "the pregnant brain". It wont go away until a couple months after baby is born lol
