after reading this article and being well impressed with the Japanese elderly I commented

'I hope when I'm old I'm Japanese'

Loving this thread already! Thanks for the giggles!

Not sure I want to admit to any random thoughts

so I joined OHbaby in November last year and called myself 'Blueberries' for no particular reason, I don't even like blueberries, miscarried in December and forgot about OHbaby....

Got pregnant again in January and didn't really believe it (thought it was just left over hormones from previous pregnancy) and blamed my expanding belly on eating too much cheesecake over xmas and new year..

come March and it turned out I WAS pregnant and since then we've called baby 'Cheesecake' and depending on the sex we would call it either 'Blueberry Cheesecake' or 'Raspberry Cheesecake'

couple weeks ago we find out bubs is a boy and therefore 'Blueberry'

It's almost as if I knew in November I was gonna have a boy

Isn't it amazing what an impact being pregnant has on your brain function? (GOD I hope everyone agrees and it's not just me that's a retard lol) I forget EVERYTHING and can't answer a simple question to save myself. Me and DH had a lengthy conversation the other day about the dishwasher tablets!? You know how some of them have the plastic that dissolves and some don't... I had been putting the dishwasher on ALL week and when he asked if he needed to take the plastic off, do you think I could give him a straightforward answer?! It just wouldn't come out! In the end he ended up handing me the tablet and walking off back to the couch hahahaha. Poor hubby. I really hadn't given "baby brain" a lot of credibility in the past, but now I know it is an actual, real issue. For me anyway :P

Edited for spelling and punctuation. Another indicator of my lacking brain function...

i swear my baby brain kicks into high gear each time i get in the car ... twice this week have been driving somewhere else and ended up at the mall!

and then there's the whole issue of keeping forgettting to take the handbrake off and wondering why the car is struggling to go anywhere when my foot is flat to the floor - hopefully my car forgives me for the punishment it receives!

Hahaha I actually did laugh out loud about the outside memory thing. I would have got exactly what you meant though (:))

I had a complete mental block and couldn't remember how to spell "when" the other day. Its SO obvious, there aren't a whole heap of other options but it just didn't look right. I ended up changing the whole structure of what I was writing so I could avoid the word altogether because I was too embarrassed to ask (:$)
