    Whats the silliest thing you've done since being pg?

    I am a bit of a joke with my friends and family at the moment because I don't just have pregnant brain ..... my brain has left the building.
    It got to the point where I couldn't remember what a tea towel was called yesterday and DF wouldn't tell me because he thought I was joking and if I don't write myself lists I forget really important stuff.... like underwear and setting the alarm clock ..... (the underwear one is another thread in itself ...lol)

    So it got me to thinking .... what are the funniest / silliest things you've done since you've been pg?

    I've always been a bit vague so being pg only made it much worse & more obvious

    I went & had a shower & forgot my towel, often put the milk in the cupboard, went out once & thought I had the keys to the new house in my bag - turned out they were on the bench (DP not impressed as he had to break a door in to get in), everything became 'thingy' cause my brain didn't want to name anything - you know the thingy you boil water with, the thingy you put the food on, I gotta go to the thingy again. I have no idea how I managed to worked until I was 4 weeks due.
    Ahh things haven't changed that much since having him either, do you know it is still Aug? except we are in Sept now

    I can't remember many because I have pg brain

    This morning I was very close to having water on my weet bix. Grabbed the water jug out of the fridge instead of the milk. Realised just as the first drop was about to hit!

    I'd just like to suggest that if your pg brain is like mine DON'T decide to learn how to use your Nanna's 50 yr old pressure cooker after a tiring day...

    I walked around a shopping centre for about 15 mins before someone pointed out that I had forgotten to button my top up all the way after trying some clothes on and my boobs were hanging out.....
    I got half way and got distracted..... haven't been back to that shopping centre

    LMAO, DP was not happy with me for locking the keys in the house cause a few days earlier I thought I had locked them in the house & he broke in through a window & it turned out they were in the car the whole time & it was because of this that we made sure all windows are locked so when I really did lock them in the house he had to break a door.

    Oh & Beautifulmadness, I would still check out that house even though it is out of your price range cause with the way the market is you might find they will come down. Our house, which we brought cause I was pg, was adv $250 thousand & we got them down to $226 so have another look at that house you just never know.

    Ladies, this thread was the best lunchtime reading ever! LOL

    Ok, so for me...Let's see, I forgot my home and mobile number many times already asking DH, what's my mobile number?? Scaringly, I also forgot my pin number for online banking, the same pin I have had for 7 years mind you, I had to go through the whole house to find my little card with the details on it...that took 3 days to solve as I could not remember the answers to my security questions online either!

    but my favorite has been to put my track pants on inside out, wear them for a whole day, went grocery shopping, for a walk etc. only to have DH tell me at 7:30pm, that my sticker was hanging out and the very OBVIOUS seams sticking out at the side! LOL

    Keep the good stories comin'

    I haven't had too many pg moments - yet!!

    I put a top on backwards, had the bunchy preggie tummy bit on my back, which felt very odd... but I noticed it straight away.

    I forget what things are called - "Check that err thingy there to see if we are free, that thingy with the dates, what's it called?"

    I put milk in the cupboard and flour in the fridge.

    A few little things!

    Im back,
    OK there was one. I was 7w Pregnant, and had my driving test to get my drivers licence, DP and I had driven 3 hours for it (so i didnt have to wait a zillion months to do the test here in the city).
    So all was good, went into the DPI office, came out, ready for my test, only to find id locked my keys in the car!!
    So the tester person and his mate got wire and managed to unlock my door *phew* and i did my test, and passed.
    So bad start, good end!!!
