Priming for a New Role - Pregnancy & "Baby Brain"

A friend brought me this article that clearly explains "baby" or "Mommy" brain as we mamas are all too familiar!

Pregnant women and animals experience slight decreases in learning and memory—changes that appear to pave the way for cognitive benefits in motherhood and may even advantage mothers as they age. 

A couple of weeks ago I thought maybe I was totally losing it. Well, not exactly, but I did know well enough to know my memory problems were related to the pregnancy. I couldn't remember to get Z's prescription for days, which was very unlike me, among countless other silly things I did or didn't do which for the life of me now, I cannot remember! 

So have no fear, my fellow preggos. We are normal. We are not crazy after all!
