Momnesia

Filed under: Simply Diary

Hari ini pulang gereja kita pergi belanja, trus pulang ke rumah deh.
Karena sekarang Vianney dah berat, makanya digendong aja keluar mobil ga pake car seatnya.
Hubby gendong Vianney, gw bawa2 barang belanjaan.

Nah, karena masih angin kenceng gw suruh hubby tutupin Vianney pake selimut.
Gw dah bawa2 barang ama kunci mobil, sambil nungguin hubby angkat Vianney keluar mobil baru gw kunci.
Gw: "Jangan lupa selimutnya mana tuh"
Hb: "Lha itu selimutnya loe yang bawa"

ya ampyuuuuuuunnn…sampe segitunya gw pikun, selimut ditangan gw sendiri sampe lupa
Momnesia gw hari ini bener2 parah deh, malu ati jadinya…hehehehe… emoticon

Gw dengerin di radio beberapa hari yang lalu, kalo moms yang abis punya baby akan kehilangan jam tidur sebanyak 450 hours/year, kalo ngasih ASI bakalan kehilangan jam tidur lebih banyak lagi sampe 700 hours.
Selain itu juga kena momnesia ini, tapi bukan berarti tambah mundur lho otaknya, melainkan bertambah dengan skill baru, kita lebih peka dengan baby, gimana taunya kalo baby lapar, belon lagi kita udah aware kalo anak kita sakit.

"It turns you into someone who serves that little infant, to keep it alive no matter what," says Brizendine, founder of the Women’s and Teen Girls’ Mood and Hormone Clinic at the University of California in San Francisco. "Other parts of your brain that are usually on high alert are sort of taken offline."

Women may be reluctant to talk about their memory problems for fear of being judged poorly at work, especially because returning to a demanding job puts even more stress on the brain, Brizendine says.

But women don’t get dumber after childbirth. Instead, like sleep-deprived medical residents who learn on the job, their brains are getting a workout. "You are learning a lot," she says. "Once your mommy brain gets readjusted, you get more efficient, and you become smarter and learn things faster, but it won’t happen all at once."

Mothers’ priorities often change dramatically while caring for a baby. They need to be "hyper vigilant" about their infants, who may develop symptoms of illness that are apparent only to those who have scrutinized their every coo and cry, Brizendine says. "You’re on the mother beat all the time. It requires certain parts of your brain to work hyper, hyper, hyper well. But it requires other parts of your brain to play second fiddle."
