This soudns crazy but what a week I've been having! I've been tired/grumpy/unmotivated all week, running late to work all week (and I'm never late), i hit a curb with my tire when trying to park one day, almost got in a car accident, locked myself out of my house yesterday, dropped a sock 10 times before managing to get it into the hamper, etc. I just feel 'not me'. I thought maybe I'm just stressed out from work, but I was telling a group of people this and the first thing they shouted was 'OMG you're pregannt!' - I didn't relate all these things to pregancy at all! But they all said 'Oh I did things like that too' etc. Anyone have some crazy story like that when pregnant?

We call it the "pregnancy retardedness"! It happens to us all. I was working as a server during my first, and let me tell you, people got mad at me a lot! My tips went up a little once my belly got really big cause of sympathy tips. But I was awful!!! I forgot to bring people their drinks, forgot to put there orders in, forgot everything they asked me for, I would walk in the kitchen, forget what I went there for, and have to go right back to the table. You know the best part though? This is so common, that all the mothers and fathers and fathers I had to apologize to pleading "pregnancy retardedness" were very understanding! A couple left me huge tips of like $100 or more for a $30 bill! Don't worry, it will soon subside after the baby is born, until then, just don't let it get you down!

That is silly. None of those things are considered pregnancy symptoms.
There is the whole story about pregnant women being clumsy and forgetful but it is not considered a sign of pregnancy.
A positive pregnancy test would be a good sign. :)

when I was pregnant, I couldn't seem to do any thing right, like i couldn't do the laundry properly, couldn't do my school work right, nd I always get 90 or better, and the worst was I couldn't cook anything properly, it always tasted funny, or got burnt! sounds crazy eh? But its all true. So ya, I can relate!

I ALMOST GOT BEAT UP when i was 5 months pregnant! she didnt know i was pregnant because i wasnt showing much yet but i guess i gave her an attitude and she thought i wanted to take her BF so she pushed me! but i was ok :)

There is a medical term for that, I think it is 'mumdums'. Get used to it, it can last for awhile!
