Mom Brain
With that being said I just HAD to blog about the worst part of pregnancy and being a mom...the only bad thing as far as I am concerned and that is Pregnancy Brain and Mom Brain. Did you know that while you are pregnant you lose 5% of your brain capacity (I have heard) and you NEVER get it back? Well I am here as a testament to this fact. Here are some of my "greatest" mom brain moments.
J: (while getting his lunch together for work) Babe do we have any milk?
Me: Yeah! We have a whole head of lettuce in there!!
J:.......?
While baking with my sister...
B: how much butter do you need?
Me:......*stares*
B:....Haleigh......how.much.butter
Me:......I'm thinking
B: here let me help. What do you need next?
Me: butter goes in bowl
B: okay
Me:.....*stares*
Me: (5 minutes later) Wait, not THAT bowl
Oy....I do hope this gets better lol and here's a cute picture to tide you over until my wordless Wednesday post :)

I've never read about the percentage lost before.. yikes. At moments I would argue that I am higher functioning because of my Mommy powers, but that's in a world of potty training, late night feedings, mickey mouse, and multi tasking. I'm sure if I ever left our little cocoon we've made here I would crash and burn...hard. lol
ReplyDeleteI have read percentage and also 30 IQ points...either way...it's some brain I'll never get back :( haha
