I had a really hard time remembering things after having my son. Little things like picking up my groceries after paying for them (I walked out twice from the grocery store with the cashier running after me with my groceries). So many girls told me it happens and it’s normal to become forgetful after having a baby.
My mom kept telling me that’s nonsense cause plenty of women have multiple children and don’t keep forgetting things.
I believe the article is right. We aren’t rested enough which is why this happens. Plus, we have way too many things on our mind (hence, lack of proper rest).
The physical and emotional stresses on a woman’s body from pregnancy can make women feel more tired than usual.
"As we all know tiredness - for men as well as women - can make us lose concentration and cause us to function less effectively.
“This is why midwives encourage pregnant women to take appropriate rest breaks, at home and at work. Many pregnant women will need this rest, and all of them deserve it.”
not only can i not remember jack... i sometimes have to just sit down and listen cuz my ears wont... or what i hear wont make sense.. its all from sleep deprivation
I definitely had this -- or maybe it was an excuse? I think you're so preoccupied with baby that you don't retain other things. It's bad when you're a teacher and supposed to know more than your students!
It’s been 3 months now and I have also been facing this problem. I have pets and these days I just forget their names I have to ask my mom " what is the name of this cat ? " Similarly at work too I am facing difficulty in remembering things so now I keep a planner on my table and write down each and every task I need to perform including making calls to so & so company. The problem with me has been that I joined work 6 weeks after my c section and I didnt get the much needed rest.:hinna:
