Pregnancy brain? When does it stop?

Question

I’m starting my 6th week of pregnancy, and boy oh boy am I ever SLOW upstairs. Does the ‘pregnancy brain’ ever quit? 
I’m struggling a lot with this. I’m a scientist, and I need to be able to think. I’m also an advocate for women in STEM research fields, but if we can’t both think and have a family, how is equality possible? I’m so frustrated :(

Answer

Yaaaaa when my first was 1 we tried for our second. Got pregnant right away so my brain has been MUSH since July 2014 😱

Answer

it doesn't really resolve until 12-18 months postpartum...and longer if you choose to breastfeed...it'll be 12-18 months after you stop breastfeeding...sorry hun

Answer

I still have the pregnancy brain, it just transitions into mama brain after you have your baby and doesn't really go away. My son is 16 months and my mama brain isn't as bad as it was when I was pregnant but I still forget things. Probably because I rarely have time to eat a good meal and get a good night's sleep.

Answer

I don't know my pregnancy brain is still going strong at 6months postpartum. My biggest issue is that I can't remember the things I've told people before and I've always been really good at not being repetitive lol

Answer

I personally never understood pregnancy brain or mommy brain. I’ve never felt any “slower” or forgetful.
