- I have walked around with my nursing bra flap down underneath my shirt. This may or may not have been in front of someone other than my husband and baby.
- On multiple occasions, I have walked away from merchandise at the store after paying for it.
- I have completely lost track of when I fed or changed the baby.
- Once I wore a sweaty outfit after a workout for a couple hours, simply because I forgot to shower afterward.
- I have nearly "booped" my husband's nose before realizing he was not the baby.
- The sternwheeler boat we had dinner on for our anniversary? I called it a steamroller to some friends when recounting the story of our trip.
- On the same anniversary trip (for which we left the baby with my parents), I almost freaked out when I realized we didn't have the baby with us.
- I called on a student in my Primary (children's Sunday school) class by his correct name, then legitimately thought I had gotten his name wrong. I've been teaching his class since January.
- Even better, I have had to think really hard to remember which name went to which: my husband or my baby.
- I forgot that I was holding silverware in one hand, got another set with the other, then became really confused when I sat down to eat.
- I have forgotten important details about friends' lives. (Sorry guys....)
- I have asked my husband to run an errand with our one car after work... when I was the one with the car.
- A few days ago I discovered poop stains on the couch without remembering when it happened.
I love how the fact that I birthed a miniature human (and now am largely responsible for said human) is a great excuse for doing embarrassing things. :-P
Surely I'm not the only one! What funny or embarrassing stories do you have about mommy brain?
