Brain Dead

Do you ever feel like when something unexpected occurs you get stuck? Like it should be the easiest thing in the world to figure out what to do but for a split second your mind goes blank?
Sydney started to get fussy during the sacrament and for a split second I didn't know what to do! HELLO?? Anyone home?? lol Gabe had to lean over and tell me to rock her car seat back and forth to calm her down. I started thinking to myself "oh yeah!! Why didn't I think of that?!" I've only been doing it for the past 2 and a half months!
Or when you have guests over or are at church in a class and you are totally content with listening to the conversation because you really have nothing to add to it and someone asks you a question and then nothing comes to mind? Then you get all nervous and start sweating and then wished you had worn a white or black shirt that day so no one would notice.
These kind of moments happen often for me and I am starting to think to myself.... is there a diagnosis for this?

Its called Mommy Brain. I've had it for years... there isn't a for sure cure yet either. Get used to it! ;)

New mom, long nights, sorry it doesn't get better until your youngest is 12 - and then they just say you're getting older.

Or it's just being human. I'm not quite a Mom yet, but I certainly wonder where my brain is sometimes ;)
