So What's your silliest preggo moment?

Now...that is funny!

Last night I had gotten up from the couch to go into the kitchen. The entire time I was leaning severely to the right and just about ran into the wall before I gained my balance again. My husband asks me "First time walking??" LOL!! My balance is crap since becoming pregnant!

I love reading these stories... I am 3 years post op - lost 260lbs - 39 years old and OOPS - PREGNANT! with my 1st.  I am SCARED to death to gain too much weight but I am eating like crazy - I literally get hungry every 2 hours.  I swear I gained 6 lbs the week I found out I was pregnant and then lost 8lbs in the first trimester - and have gained 7 of those back (and Im only 13 weeks today).  So right now Im about +5 overall.  I made an appt with my surgeon, the nutritionist and the psychiatrist just to cover all my basis...

I have baby-brain, low energy, morning sickness, cravings, bad balance, lightheadedness, gas, cramps when I get up too fast or twist and Im hungry all the time.  Its like if theres a symptom I have it!  I even threw a temper tantrum the other night when it was POURING out (live in FL - its usually pouring at some point in August/September) and I was craving meatball parm and my hubby wouldnt go get it! TG I found someone to deliver so there wasnt a major crisis! lol

Up until week five I had a super powered EVIL surge of preggo hormones . Fiance' is 6' 4 and close to 400lbs. I truly believed that I could drag him from room to room by the neck. I got into a funk one morning and got mad that he doesn't have to go through the ups and downs of pregnancy. He was sleeping peacefully in the bed (something I hadn't done since I got my BFP) I crawled up right next to him and looked down at him, when he awoke I put both hands around his neck and thought I could drag him out the bed. (shocked him sh*tless) since we never have had random acts of violence. He was very startled and then can you believe this.. HE STARTED LAUGHING AT ME!  This made me cry..LOL.. Thank God I am over the EVILNESS. I am approaching week 7 and all I do is hibernate, eat and cry. The anger has subsided

Okay, so mine is not a pregnancy "dumb" moment, but it is a postpartum "dumb" moment.  One Sunday morning I was headed out to church..hubby was staying home to work on putting up a fence.  So I get to church and deliver all of my children to the appropriate rooms.  I get to the nursery to put my 15-month-old in there, and the worker sayd to me...Oh...is Hannah not here today (she was like 3 weeks old)...I was like OH ****!!  Right in the middle of church, God, and everyone, cuz I had left her in the car!!!  I felt like such a horrible mom.   She was just such a good baby and never made a noise, so I forgot I had her with me..LOL

I keep forgetting things.  It's soooo annoying.

I keep my bread in the microwave because for some strange reason my cat Butters is a carb addict and eats my bread if it's out on the counter.  Any who, I had sandwich bread and hotdog rolls from a BBQ in my microwave.  4 days ago I went to make some weight control oatmeal, I threw the bowl in the mic, and forgot to take the bread out.  About 20 seconds later I realized.  I pulled the bags out of the mic and the logos from the bread were stuck to the bottom of the mic, and now my mic plate says "Arnold's" permanently on the bottom of it.  HAHA

OK I had to laugh that your cat - BUTTERS likes Bread! 

Oh and BTDT! lol

Thanks for sharing ladies - these are great!

I learned to fart and run like the wind in a store!!! 

Seriously i had horrible gas,..bad stinky dog fart gas!! lol

I had one of my first ones yesterday! I was baking DH and DD a blackberry cobbler after I finished cooking dinner which required the use of the oven. About 10 minutes after I put the cobbler in, I turned the oven off! I thought I forgot to turn it off after cooking dinner. 35 minutes later the timer goes off to pull the cobbler out. I walk downstairs and notice that the air isn't filled with the warm fragrant smell of fresh cobbler. I open the oven to find the still uncooked cobbler then it clicked. DOH!

I feel stupider lately... I've been doing my job for years yet I keep forgetting things like attaching documents to emails, properly formatting spreadsheets, and leaving for lunch when I have a meeting in 10 minutes!
