Anyone THAT fuzzy brained, knows it.
If this is a mistake, it’s a mistake the way drunk driving is a mistake. I.e. no excuse.

Drunk driving is a choice that one makes and it is a crime. I would liken this more to being a tired and driving. Not a good idea but you think things will be fine and you can stay awake until you find yourself drifting over the line or in a ditch.
Being sleep deprived and hormonal is a result of having a baby. It is not a choice you make. Are you a mom? If so did you deliver those babies or adopt? Pregnancy, childbirth and care of a newborn are hard on a mother both physically and emotionally. It doesn’t matter if you realize that you are fuzzy brained or forgetful, you don’t think something like this is going to happen.
When my friend was a new mother she sat her newborn’s bouncy seat on the table while she was cooking dinner. The seat fell off the table but the baby wasn’t hurt badly. They went to the hospital anyway. She did not realize that her newborn baby would be able to bounce the seat off the table. Even though the baby was fine, my friend was a total basket case. She realized what could have happened and it terrified her.
