Baby Brain
Alot of people who have not been pregnant before or just don’t want to believe its true don’t know about a thing called ‘baby brain”. Its when you are pregnant and your brain gets lost and forgetful and you really do forget things easily and do things completely wrong.
Scientists have found that a woman’s brain actually shrinks during pregnancy and the brain cell volume actually decreases during the third trimester.But luckily it all comes back a few months after pregnancy. At least now they have found that the vitamin called choline helps bring back those memory cells. Most moms will get it from their prenatal vitamins but its not enough. You can get more of this vitamin by eating egg yolks,beef,milk,soybeans,citrus fruits,wheat germ and nuts.
It is also recommended to get lots of this vitamin even after pregnancy and especially if you are breastfeeding. So thats alot of vitamins to be taking when you are pregnant. Remember during the beginning of pregnancy to take lots of folic acid to help the baby’s development and then in the third trimester to take lots of choline for yours and your baby’s brain development.
My friend is pregnant. It’s really weird that she is some kind of forgetful when in fact she wasn’t like that when she’s not pregnant. She even noticed it why it happened to her. The doctor recommended her to take folic acid. She’s 2 months pregnant.

Anne, I most def. recomend your friend takes folic acid. I have been taking that for a very long time. It doesnt help much with memory but its very good for the baby.
