Yesterday I promised I would share what set off the crying fest on Sunday. First, I must pose a question.
How long does "baby brain" actually last?
There are physicians who believe that "pregnancy brain" is a real phenomenon because of the hormonal/physiological changes that occur in your body during pregnancy. They even say that it can last up to a year after childbirth due to still more hormonal changes, lack of sleep, and preoccupation with taking care of a new baby.
Is it possible to still have it 2 years later, or heaven forbid, FOREVER?!?!?
WHAT?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!
We all know what happened next. I cried and cried and cried. For many reasons....
- Baby girl loves being around other kids, and I ruined it.
- This was going to be one of the few opportunities for me to see some of my girlfriends, and I ruined it.
- I wanted to meet more moms to hang out with, and I ruined it.
- I was the first person to RSVP to the shower and wanted to be there to support my friend Lauren, and I ruined it.
How am I going to prevent this from happening again?
- Write everything down and actually look at my calendar!
- Check, re-check, and check again all invitations!
