    I feel like im losing my mind and its driving me crazy.. I used to forget things like where my keys were, or to bring my cell with me, but this is getting horrible and isn't like me at all.

    It started with just little things like forgetting to turn the lights off or the stove or something, it wasn't that big of a deal so i didn't think much about it, but then it got worse. I started forgetting what I was saying mid sentence or what I was talking about. Then one day my husband asked me to make some dinner while he took a shower and I forgot completely about it just minutes after being asked.
    Then I started doing other things like forgetting to lock our door when I left, and then last night when I got home from my parents with my husband ( in his car ) I looked over at mine and saw that my radio was on... I opened my door and found my car keys in the ignition!! They had been in there for three days! I seriously feel like Im going mad and don't know what is wrong with me. Is this normal?? what should I do about this??


  • That is the worst! My daughter is 2 and I still have scatter brained moments, but not as bad. I think the stupidist thing I tried to do was put the Milk in the cuboard after pouring a glass.


  • 1st of all...how old are you?
    2nd, Alzheimers is a serious disease and not one to be making fun of


  • LOL. it happened to me too. You will get better. I swear it's hormones.

    Here's the thing, Having and preparing for a baby convinces you that you can never be the perfect parent this baby deserves. We as moms, Begin the Epic worry of our lives. The constant questioning of ourselves, our spouses and our children. We are always countinmg the ducklings, taking mental inventory or the groceries, the bills, the cleanliness of the Children and the cleanliness of their environment. Since this is new to you, you start out swearing you got stupider with pregancy & motherhood. You didn't. Your maternalism kicked in and it will be full tilt for quite some time. Rejoice. you are normal, and all is fine.

    By the way, I felt like a crazy woman too. I once watched my 2nd born sleep for 5 hours. I refused to move because I was so Paranoid about SIDS. We moms get insane when it comes to our cubs. But that is exactly the way nature intended it to be.



  • Join the club. It doesn't go away. My daughter is 15 months old, and the other day I actually couldn't come up with the words "smoke alarm" to describe the thingy on the wall that goes off when there is a fire in the house.

    I STILL do the stupidest things sometimes. (Walk to the garbage with a wet diaper in one hand and my car keys in my other and throw out the car keys and walk away with the diaper.)


  • i know exactly what you mean! i'd be in a conversation and wanted to say the simplest word, but couldn't even think of it and get it out. constantly forgetting things, not making any sense when i talk. i feel like i'm starting to get better (baby is 3 months now)...but still not at my best. my husband was getting really frustrated with me for a while, but we're doing better, lol.

    sounds silly, but i've been doing puzzles, word games, and just trying to challenge my mind. i think it's helping. good luck...i hear it gets better :)

    ps. i work with a lot of people who said their wives were the same way, so it's not just us. :)


  • Me too, I think we suffered brain damage giving birth.


  • You have so many new responsibilities that some times the smaller things not involving the baby slip your mind . This is very normal , and for any idiot to say you need the baby taken away is just asinine and ignorant .
    With all of my kids I could tell you where every baby item was in the house , but forgot other non-baby things .
    I do agree part is lack of sleep . I think the other part is making sure you are taking care of the baby and forget other things .
    It will get better as the baby gets older and you have more sleep . Also once the baby has a more rounded schedule it will make things easier on you and your memory .
    Congrats on your baby and best wishes for your family and your future .


  • Hang in there! lack of sleep and hormonal changes have big effects on short- and medium-term memory.

    Treat yourself with grace, and leave some more time in your schedule for searching for your keys!

    Blessings to you, your family, and your new baby!


  • It's a product of being sleep deprived and the stress of being a new mom.

    It will get better.

    Also, ignore the people who got offended or said to take your baby away, you'll be fine.


  • My daughter is a year and I still have those days. I think in the beginning it has a lot to do with lack of sleep. Now there are just so many more things on my mind. Don't sweat it, they call it "mommy brain" for a reason and a lot of women feel that way:)


  • Lol...there really isn't anything you can do. It gets better after awhile. I didn't notice improvement until after six months. I found that doing things to excercise your memory helps. I had to go back to work where I have to remember lots of things at a time. It was awful at first but it got better over time.

  • LOL what you are describing is often referred to as "pregnancy brain". It is very common and temporary.

    brain is a condition that affects expectant mothers, usually during the first and third trimesters. Sometimes known as placenta brain or baby brain drain, the condition is usually characterized by short-term memory loss or forgetfulness. Some medical experts say that pregnancy brain is a myth, but evidence shows that many women have experienced this condition.

    Studies linking memory and pregnancy are limited, and their results have been irregular. However, pregnant women have claimed to experience frustration while trying to remember the most simple everyday tasks. Some working women who are pregnant have become emotionally distressed because pregnancy brain has rendered them unable to work effectively.

    It's understandable that women's emotional levels vary greatly during pregnancy. Hormonal surges, combined with the fact that pregnant women must eat for two and may be getting less sleep, are contributory. A great deal of the mother's time is taken up with thoughts of the baby, so a little forgetfulness is expected.

    Increased levels of the hormone progesterone are thought to be a culprit in pregnancy brain. Progesterone can often cause headaches, mood swings and fatigue. The increase of progesterone is often greatest in the first trimester and may be the reason for increased forgetfulness.

    The effects of pregnancy brain vary greatly among women. They can be as simple as forgetting phone numbers that one has dialed for years or placing toilet paper in the fridge. One mother-to-be drove home only to find she had arrived at a previous home she had not lived in for six years.

    Doctors have devised a few key steps that may help pregnant women decrease the risk of pregnancy brain. Sleep is a key factor in keeping the mind mentally healthy. A pregnant woman should try to get the same amount of sleep as she did before the pregnancy. Eating a well-balanced diet is essential to keep both mother and baby healthy. Doctors recommend that pregnant women take prenatal vitamins in order to ensure the intake of vital vitamins and minerals.

    Exercise is also essential to keep the circulation flowing, decrease tiredness and make the mother feel mentally healthier. Another tip is to drink plenty of fluids. When pregnant women become dehydrated, their electrolytes may be disrupted, causing decreased memory and confusion.

    The good news for pregnant women is that pregnancy brain is only temporary. It should start to decrease once the baby is born, although some mothers claim that pregnancy brain can last for some time after the birth. However, with most of the mother's time spent taking care of a newborn baby, this is only to be expected


  • loving called mumnesia, doctors say it's real: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/main.jh...

    i have it too! my baby is 7 months old and is very slowly getting better, but i don't think i'll ever be the same.


  • memory loss is normal during and after pregnancy, but this does seem a little extreme. ive never forgot to turn off the stove but i do forget things like: Ill forget I washed clothes and then find them still in the washer the next day. My hubby will ask me to wash a specific shirt and Ill forget. I forget to return phone calls. If I use the restroom during my morning news paper, Ill forget I was reading the paper and do something else. My biggest problem, Im an electrician apprentice and Ill read a whole text book and learn nothing because I forget what I have just read. Its frustrating! Talk to your doctor, Im seeing mine next week for this.


  • So I know you are not making fun of Alzheimers, just using it as a comparison. Yes, this is common in new mothers. I have really been struggling with this for two years, and it is getting better. But it is real, and I can relate. What has worked for me is what I call super foods, omega 3's, nuts and fish, blueberries are great for memory. Get a small calendar and write everything down. Look up memory building exercises. You have to re-build your life and organize yourself in a way that you can remember, really it's a constant struggle but you can face the problem, acknowledge you are forgetting and live with it, it doesn't have to consume your life, I haven't let it take over mine.


  • try taking vitamin supplements... mainly Vit. B. Vit. B12
    plus, you should talk to your doctor!
