Mom Brain Is Real & These Hilarious Instagram Photos Prove It

Pregnancy and motherhood come with a lot of changes. For starters, you created an entirely new human being (go you!). You also probably gained a few new stresses, some exhaustion, some crazy hormones, and a few body changes to boot. But the wildest change? Your sudden inability to remember freaking anything. Mommy brain is a real thing we all experience from time to time (likely more often than we want to admit), and these moms are sharing their hilarious mix-ups on Instagram so we can all laugh (and cry) together.

1. Nothing like starting the morning off with a nice cup of hot ... formula.

At least you won't need to add cream.

2. How about a little chargrilled toast with your formula?

Third time is the charm — unless someone needs a diaper change.

3. This mom legit tried to put on a baby sock.

At least they sound adorable.

5. This mom accidentally left her breast milk in the car.

Note: It's totally okay to cry over spilled milk in this situation.

6. This mom gets dressed just like everyone else: two different shoes at a time.

They're both black, so that's close enough TBH.

7. Something tells me the toddler isn't going to eat this one.

It's not burned, it's just well done.

8. Sometimes you're the coffee, and sometimes you're the upside down mug.

Just soak it up with a burp cloth and move on.

9. This mom put the wrong lid back on the milk.

I mean, it'd be easier to drink out of the carton that way.

10. Ah, the classic orange juice in cereal mix-up.

Let's hope she noticedĀ *before* she took a bite.

11. This gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "grab a cold one."

At least it might inspire someone to clean the fridge.

12. On the plus side, the butter is really close to the knives.

This probably means there's some silverware in the fridge, right?
