Before I gave birth, I'd chat away quite happily in the supermarket with people I knew. I'd have amusing conversations littered with witty exchanges, and remember to ask about their lives too!
Now I sigh inwardly when I see a familiar face when I'm out and about. Because I know I'm about to have an awkward few minutes, of desperately trying to make adult conversation. Literally, all words disappear from my head. I don't get little quips. I struggle to answer the most basic of questions. I can actually see people thinking 'ummm, is she OKAY??'.
It's highly annoying!!
Baby 14 weeks by the way, and yes, I'm getting a decent amount of sleep!!
