So, anybody out there seen my…ah….my what-cha-ma-call-it?
I know it was right here a minute ago.….
Now, where the heck did it go?
It didn’t grow legs and run off with that darned thing-ah-ma-jig I lost last week, did it?
Do you think you could help me find it?
‘Cuz we are supposed to meet What’s Her Face at that park over by…umm…. Ahh…..by….ah?
I think I’ll flip out if I can’t find it. So, if you could help, I will forever be in your service.
You will? Thank you! I appreciate it.
Ah, what was your name again?
Mamma Brain. It has a language all its own, doesn’t it?

Oh this is just like me. I was fixing lunch talking on the phone and I could not spit out the correct name of the person I was trying to say was having a play date. Fun times..
My dad did that with all of our names. He'd roll through 3 or 4 of them until he finally hit on the right person!
Oh yes... moms minds are in a million place all at once.
Oh Mamma, this is a good laugh. Passing by from SITs. Have a lovely one.
Oh my gosh - that is me about 4x/day!! I can never actually get the word I'm looking for.
I was once told that during pregnancy our brains shrink by 8% - maybe they never "reinflate"?? :)
I currently have Adoption Brain....
Mamma brain, almost as bad as what I am currently afflicted with Pregnancy brain!
I understood every word.
And that worries me.
Oh yeah. The girls laugh at me when I start spouting out their names when I am trying to get only one kid's attention. I even use the dogs name.
I miss my before babies brain. I seem more intelligent then.
We do speak a language of our own don't we? And it seems that only other mothers would understand it.
I found the thingamajigger over by the whatsit.
I totally get it.
I call it KIDS-heimers...had one of those "desperate, can't find it" moments last week! ACK!
What's my excuse for not having a brain? My blond hair? :)
HOly crap you took the words right out of my mouth! Brain foggers UNITE!
OMG! I am quickly learning that, and learning that it begins with "pregnancy brain" I call it my excuse to be stupid. I've had a draft on it forever but I always forget to write the stupid things I've been doing down therefor have nothing to prove my stupidity with. ...except that.
I have just resigned myself to telling my friends to check back with me in a few years. I'll be myself again by then...hopefully!
My best, Lynn
I have taken to carrying a note pad with me and write down what I am doing at the moment because I tend to forget if interrupted but then I have to figure out if I was done with it or still doing it. LOL
That was so funny.
Yeah. Very funny. That sounds so much like me.
Yeah.
Yeah. Ha.
Where was I? Crap, did I put the kid to bed yet? Where is the kid? Where am I....zzzzzzz
When I was a kid, it used to drive me crazy when my mom would say "the thingy is in the drawer over there" accompanied by vague hand gestures.
But I'm sure your family knows how to decrypt you.
Thanks for the offer of goodies from Bend. You're sweet! But the shipping is too darned expensive!
I love Time Travelers Wife.. I read the book but I have not see the movie yet..
Have a great day.
haha, that's funny. I've had those days, oh wait, I mean that's every day for me :)
I saw a segment on The Today Show once confirming Mommy Brain really exists, not that we didn't know that already, but it was great to be justified. My husband, what's his name?, was in trouble after that!

This post proves it. I am showing it to my husband so he knows Mamma Brain is an honest-to-goodness condition. And must be treated with peanut butter M&Ms and chocolate covered pretzels. And maybe fried pickles.
