Mommy Brain

Can anyone tell me when Mommy Brain goes away??? I understood Baby Brain while I was pregnant...my body was working hard growing a baby. I understood Newborn Brain during the first couple months of Cohen's life...I was running on barely any sleep. However, I have a hard time being patient with Mommy Brain almost a year after Cohen was born! My mom said I need to give myself a break and that it lasts at least a year. She continued to say that my body is concentrating so hard on getting back to normal that my brain has to sacrifice. Well, I'm sick of sounding like an idiot. My Mommy Brain displays itself in my speech. I used to be able to carry on a fairly intelligent conversations. These days I'm lucky if what comes out of my mouth even makes sense. As I walked in the door tonight, Mark said, "Mandy, look at Cohen building a bridge!" I replied, "Cohen is bridging a build?" It is not uncommon for me to say things like this. The worst part is that it takes my brain a couple of seconds to unjumble the words and by then it is too late to avoid the embarrassment. So, to all my fellow mothers...when will I get my brain back??
