Baby Brain

Once you pop a baby out, life changes. But does anyone tell you about baby brain? And even if they did, NOTHING prepares you for it. I used to list 'excellent memory' as one of my greatest assets . Having got me through school, university, and put to very good use during a career in film production,  I was experiencing a slight decline in attenuation but chalked it down to the odd  Pinot Grigio. Pregnancy didn't seem to impact. 3 years on and 2 kids under 30 months I can barely remember what day it is! Apparently our brains decrease in size after childbirth' and I can attest. Sleep deprivation and maniacal multi tasking surely doesn't help but the lack any sort of recall is astounding. I literally forget everything! Driving destinations.. what's in the fridge...where I put the dog's leash, the list goes on. I'm told I will recover but doubtful the sparky brain of a precocious teen is back in shape soon. Ahhhhh but it's worth it.
