Question

Seriously, when I am watching my LO and hanging out with other adults, I have soooo much trouble keeping up a conversation. A quarter way through a sentence I just lose the train of thought. I have never been very good with social interaction but after baby, it's like I can't focus AT ALL. 8 months PP, what is going on with me?

Answer

Mom brain!!

Answer

Yes I am exactly the same way. It feels like I have a lot of trouble being present with others while my kids are around. They take so much of my attention! I think it is really normal

Answer

In the same boat!!

Answer

Same! Mine was due to postpartum anxiety and I started an anxiety med, it’s starting to get better

Answer

Same here. It just feels like my brain is constantly focused on her and it’s super hard to concentrate on anyone or anything else!
