Early Pregnancy Brain!?

I'm 6 weeks pregnant with my first after IVF, still medicated! I'm having the worst day and baby brain, if it even is that?

I've accidently overdosed my cat with medication and had to frantically call the emergency vet. Luckily, they've said to just keep and eye on him but I was so concerned about trying to get him to actually take the pill, I forgot to half it as per the instructions.

Then I got a knock at the door from my neighbour letting me know my keys were still in the door (Car keys included) and she could see I was trying not to get upset and told me it's okay and to take a deep breath. The thing is I can't even remember putting them in the door because I've not unlocked the door all day.

Please tell me this gets better and/or if there is something I can do for this fog. I'm stressed and upset. Called my DH crying.

I'd say it gets better, but maybe I just got used to it....
There are large parts of my days that I literally just cannot remember.
It's now become a habit that if I can't find something I look in all the stupid places. The past few weeks I've found salt in the fridge and cream near the car keys not even in the kitchen.
I lost my engagement ring after taking it off to wash the pots in my 1st pregnancy too. Still feel sad about it.
Also scraped the crap out of a couple of cars we've had . The most recent being just last week. Also learnt over the years of parenting and pregnancies to never ever, ever, under any circumstances do i put anything on top of my car (goodbye many phones) and I'm now at the point that I have to just take a breathe and let it go because otherwise I'd be in tears every day feeling stupid and ridiculous and frustrated.
The good news is, children are really cute and are absolutely worth it....
