Thankfully it was only 5 minutes but it's a scary thought knowing I forgot he was with me. What if I wasn't going into a store and going to work? I probably wouldn't have remembered after 5 minutes because my mind would be so occupied.
Anyone else?

I went in to get my staples removed a couple of weeks after my c-section with my daughter. I had 3 kids at that point - my sons were 3.5 and just turned 2 the week prior to my daughter being born. She was an extremely quiet baby, even at birth - she did not cry, she made a tiny little squawking noise in the first 20 seconds after being born, and that was it. She was fine, apgars were phenomenal, she was just quiet.
Finished up the appointment, all 3 of the kiddos with me because there wasn't anyone to leave them with, finished talking to the doc, and took the boys and walked out of the room - left my daughter in her carrier, on the floor in the corner of the room. Doc pokes his head out, laughing, and said "I think maybe you forgot something..."
I was a mite embarrassed. I was also almighty stinking tired. Crap happens.
