There used to be the most hilaaarious thread about this but I can't find it on the search. So lets start another! What are some daft, pregnant-brain things you've said (while UTD)?
I had one just then.
DP: How much money do you have?
Me: *counting* 50, 100, 150, 170, 180, 180. And five. So a hundred and eighty five dollars and five dollars.
DP: So, a hundred and ninety?
Me: uh, yeah.
I had an argument with a girl in Maccas drive through...drove up to the window to pay for my order, I'd counted out the money while waiting in line, handed it through the window to her and she said I needed another $1. I told her no I gave you a $2 coin (counting it out in my head 2, 4, 6...)..anyway went on for a few more seconds and I scrabbled around trying to find another $1, fuming because I knew I *had* given her the right amount...turns out I had been counting one of the $1 coins as a $2 coin :redface:
I drove away as fast as I could, feeling so so stupid!! Especially as I'd nearly had a fight with her over a freaking one dollar coin!
As for stupid things I've done..just a couple of weeks ago parked in the supermarket car park to duck into video ezy. Came back to the car and got ready to drive off, then I realised that when I'd gotten out of the car I'd left it sitting in drive and hadn't put the hand brake on! Thanked my lucky stars the car hadn't rolled anywhere!!
I remember that thread too and was thinking fo starting one - great minds.
I had made myself a toasted cheese sandwich and cleaned up the kitchen a few days go by and I really felt like another one so I went to the fridge to get this block of cheese. I start getting p!ssy because I cannot find it and have a go at DH for eating all the cheese and not telling me.
We shared a few choice words and I sulked over it for a few days :lol:
Anyway about a week later during a conversation DH told me he had found the block of cheese in the little cupboard under the bench along with the cans of soup I had put away.
ooopppppsssss we had a great giggle about it afterwards as I swore black and blue that I didn't put it there. I still have no recollection of putting the cheese there.
:lol:
Hehe I ordered about 30 too many wedding invites, at a couple of dollars each.... 70 guests, 70 invites, right? Wrong...
Picked up my u/s films, put them on top of the car while I strapped ds in, then drove for 20 minutes before I realised I had left them on the roof (obviously, they were gone by that time, but some nice person handed them back in to the u/s place for me).
Does forgetting your DH's name count? I had a mental blank for about half an hour and it drove me insane. We had only been together for about 7 years at the time so not long :redface:.
I was so embarassed. DH thought it was hysterical once I actually told him what the problem was.
I've said some super daft things but I can't remember any of them right now - damn preggy brain! But the daft thing I have done lately is buy the wrong washing powder - not just once but twice.
Last week I stood in the laundry section of the supermarket for ages picking out the right powder and somehow I managed to get top loader and not front loader. So I went back this week to get the right powder and very, VERY carefully selected my laundry powder only to discover last night that I'd done it again - I'd bought bloody top loader powder!! :wall:
Will I go for the trifecta this week??? :rofl:
LOL my favourite from the old thread (and I'm paraphrasing here) was a member who was trying to point something out to her DP on an empty block. So she said "Look, over THERE, where those houses aren't" :rofl:
One of the worst ones I did (last pg) was
DP: Did you know Judas dobbed in Jesus because he didn't get any wine at the last supper?
Me: Reeaally? That's so rude! I would've been p!ssed off too
I have a bad habit of trying to fit thru narrow areas and then I suck in my stomach to try and fit through (like that'd make any difference at 34 wks pregnant!)
:redface:
This is just what I needed, I don't know if it is just the hormone making everything so funny, but I have tears streaming down my face! :lol:
awesome thread! now i wish I could find the other!
Things I've done so far this time round...
I said to DD the other week that she was sooo lucky to have daddy make her a peanut butter sandwich; at that DH ****ed himself with laughter, and said, really I could have sworn this was vegemite! (Although it may have been peanut butter on the sandwich and I said vegemite! I cant remember the order!!)
Out for breakfast one morning, the waitress asked me for my order, I asked for perched eggs and toast; she asked again, i said perched eggs... I swore I said poached, but DH swore I said poached, probably did considering the smile on the waitress!
Upon our next visit to the same cafe, I ordered a hot chocolate for DD, then asked for it to be on skim, waitress asked me what I wanted again I said a hot chocolate on skim, she said so 2 hot chocolates then, I said no, just the 1.... she looked confused; i continued on for another minute or so, before DH stepped in finishing the order for me trying to hide his laughter!
Another great one DH asked whether I had washed his work clothes as i said i would, I said yep, they're out in the fridge drying!
hmmm theres more, but that will do for now!

I don't think this is the one you were looking for but I started this one a while back.
thought I'd post the link rather than re-type my daft moments :lol:
Chocaholic :rofl:
I had a very daft moment indeed this evening :(
I flooded the house :redface:
we have an old washing machine (for DH work clothes) and I have to fill it using the hose and tap, and then turn it off when it reaches the top. But of course I forgot. I left it on for about 2 hours. I was only in another room but didn't hear it as the tv was on. It flooded the laundry room, all down the hall into our bedroom (an inch of water all the way around!), and and has wet a bit of the carpet in 2 other bedrooms. Luckily they are the only 2 with carpet. I'm so stupid!! I can't believe how much water escaped! I had to sweep the water out of the bedroom and hall and into the plug hole on the bathroom floor, then put 8 towels down to mop up the rest. boooo :wall:
PMSL! :rofl: Oh dear, that's worse than what I did the other day; DD LOVES washing her hands so I left her alone in the bathroom while I went and did something else. When I came back to check on her she'd put the tap on full blast and somehow found the plug and put it in the sink. There was water all over tha bathroom!
I also completely lost my jumper the other day. I went out shopping trying on maternity clothes and I obviously put it down in a change room and left without it. Guuuh. Luckily it wasn't a maternity jumper or I'd be p!ssed.
I just thought of another one: I was talking to a friend at work about my pregnancy and she asked if I still have all of my daughters baby stuff.
Me: Well it's funny you mention it because I actually saw a psychic at the beginning of the year who told me I was having a boy in February and we weren't even trying to get pregnant! Wait, what was the question? I totally forgot where I was going with this.
Friend: . . . Do you still have your daughters baby stuff?
Me: OH that's right! I do have her clothes but she's a girl and I'm having a boy this time, THAT'S where I was going with this!
:lol:
I wish I could blame this on baby brain but I wasn't pregnant at the time! I was sleep deprived though. DD had been BFing aaall day and I finally got her to bed. I was sitting in the living room (back when I was living with my parents) and was trying to coax the cat to sit on my lap. So what did I do? Yep, I whipped out the boob . . . in front of my mum, and stepdad. The MOST embarrassing moment OF MY LIFE.
Neenee... :ROFL: :ROFL:
*wipes away tears of laughter*
thankyou :hug:
ETA - I think you can still blame that on baby brain ;)
ROFL that is so funny but so embarrassing! i'm not looking forward to these things... i am a scatter brain as it is hehe:
Haha I'm sitting here laughing out loud! (*Note to self: don't try to coax animals to sit on my lap once I'm seriously sleep deprived).
This isn't nearly so funny, but a couple of weeks ago I was driving out of the garage, but put the car in reverse, and came within a whisker of running over DH's bike!
Aaaah I have a few...
Most recent is the other day when I made myself a glass of cordial.... With Milk. Instead of Water. Still didn't click until I was about to take a sip and oddly could smell milk...
