I was in the bathroom brushing my teeth, and listening to Zoe cry after putting her down for a nap, and I suddenly thought to myself "why am I brushing my teeth?!". It was 5pm, and I only went to the bathroom to pee. What an idiot.

When my oldest was a baby. I got for her 3am feeding. I fed her, changed her and put her to bed. instead of going back to bed. I was making coffee

Sounds like some of the things I've done


I went to make Landon a bottle in the middle of the night, he's on whole milk and gets a bottle at night. He'd been not sleeping due to teething so I was exhausted. I made the bottle and put the gallon of milk back in the fridge. I couldn't find the top to his bottle, only to realize 20 minutes later that I'd screwed that on the gallon of milk and misplaced the cap to the gallon of milk.


Mommy brain is here to stay

LOL!! Oops! Eh, it's good dental hygeine!


I put Tressa to bed a few times about a month ago without feeding her her last bottle of the day. She never missed it! I told her ped this and he told me to drop it! I can't think up any funny ones right now. Must be from mommy brain too.

You're not alone, Sarah. One night I came home from work, washed off my makeup, brushed my teeth, showered, put all my makeup right back on again, and got dressed for work. And I don't even have kids! (Maybe it's a good thing I didn't reproduce...)
