Can’t say I noticed any difference in my brain function when pregnant or not pregnant

I have to agree with you. Between about 2 1/2 abd 3 1/2 they develop a very strong imagination. Mainly scary things. You may find them wandering into your bedroom crying. It’s known by medicos as night terrors. You will probably take a little while to resettle then as it’s the same as nightmares we sometimes have that can distress us. To them the content is definitely real. When they get older they will be able to tell you what is was about if they remember in the morning. I have had one of mine laughing in his sleep. I heard him and got up to check him. I wondered it he was getting into mischief. Next morning he told us he had a funny dream.

Now if only someone could prove toddler brain too

Of course it is, we woman could have told them that years ago haha

Yeah, I remember a bit of a baby brain in the last trimester. But I didn’t sleep so well (idem for the period after birth), so that certainly impacts your focus and ability to concentrate.

I suffered from this a little while pregnant but it worse after my daughter was born. I was so foggy for a while there.

sure did but my brain didn’t get better after my last

I dont recall having baby brain. This study is the result of info from 20 different studies so I guess it may exist

I did encounter a little bit of “baby brain”.

Absolutely! But I blame it more on getting zero quality sleep rather than just because I was pregnant.

Yep! Sure did – baby brain from the beginning till the end.
