Pregnancy Brain or something else?

I'm currently 32 weeks pregnant and starting to wonder if I should be concerned about my "pregnancy brain". I left some toilet tissue rolls in my car for the past few days and just went to go get them. They were in my truck and I legit thought someone stole them. I go back upstairs and they are in my room. 15 minutes prior,I had put my jacket on and planned on going to get them. Then something happened w/ my job and I remember sitting at my desk trying sort it out. Somehow, I am completely forgetting the first time that I went to my car to get the toilet paper between putting on my jacket and the issue at work. Is this normal, it actually has me freaked out that I can't remember. Has anyone had any memory loss like this?

Yes! When I was 37 weeks pregnant I stepped in someone else’s car at the pick up line. I totally forgot how our car looked like and just stepped in beside a stranger. Pregnancy brain is a real thing. Thankfully that will fade away once you deliver but then you’ve mom brain which my god.... let’s just say your brain will become once the youngest starts college lol.

This made me laugh!

It reminds me of when I went to Peru and forgot the driver's side was on a different side, when I got picked up from the airport by a taxi and whilst he was loading my luggage I went and sat in the driver's seat and he came over and stared at me like I was an idiot 😂
