Pregnancy Brain. Do you think it's a myth?
Well let me tell you, I do not!! The evidence does not support any such phenomenon known as Pregnancy Brain or Momnesia; however, if you lived at my house for a couple days you would become a believer. Everyone knows that I am the flighty one, the aloof one, and Jen is the rock and the memory in our little group of two. Among all the other adjustments in our new life, I am learning to (attempt to) become accountable for the things Jen used to do. My iPhone is overrun with notes on things I have to remember to do, buy, or put together/fix.
There is course, the occasional loss of keys (that were left in the car). The start of a sentence that seems to fly off in to space... A trip to Target for one item that ends in us getting home with nothing we needed.
The studies may not prove that there is actual change in the mechanics of a pregnant woman's brain, but I am here to tell ya, it's for real. So Partners, Hubbies, and family... get your calendars, reminders, and day planners handy, you're gonna need 'em!
