Earth to Brain, Earth to Brain...

The last 24 hours has convinced me that the whole concept of 'placenta brain' really does exist. I can be as absent-minded as the next person, but there has been something truly bizarre going on in the last week or two and it's getting out of control! Based on what I've read, it certainly coincides with me entering my third trimester. In the last 24 hours alone I have done the following: forgot to include a tip on a credit-card purchased meal, forgot to turn my car lights off which required a call to roadside assistance to get a boost (okay, that was a big one!), forgot to put an envelope of important midwifery documents (including personal health information) into the car, and somehow lost my day planner at my appointment, which also has a fair bit of personal information.

If anyone has any bright ideas as to how I can manage my life a little better while hormones are wreaking havoc on my brain's memory function - I'm listening!!
