Just want to write this down that I've been having what you call pregnancy brain... also known as forgetfullness or memory problems during pregnancy...

According to this excerpt from Babycenter article:
"Many pregnant women say their short-term memory isn't up to par during pregnancy, particularly during their first and third trimesters."
I've already excused myself from the job of family event planner. Prior to this I'm mostly the person to contact the restaurants to book rooms and tables for family gatherings and then liaise and contact all the family members and invite and remind them to attend the functions. Can't cope with the stress and tiring tasks of liaising with each and everyone in this, so it's better to not take up this task anymore...
Then, I've also been telling my MIL not to entrust me with anything during my pregnancy especially with the tasks of remembering something for her, which she likes to get me to do. Prior to getting pregnant, I have very good memory and could remind her and other people of things to be done, but now, 3 months along, I'm really having trouble remembering things.
So far, I've been having problems remembering where I put (or did I even keep it?!!) hubby's car keys (whenever we're out, I normally hold and keep the keys for him in my diaper bag) and occassionally a couple of times forgetting to replenish Ben's water bottle prior to going out, resulting in us having to buy water outside...
Sigh... I have got quite a few more months to endure this pregnancy brain phase... bear with me please...
