[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this post was quite a while ago, but hopefully someone will still see my response.  I am coming at this from the opposite perspective.  I am the forgetful one.  I am 5 months pregnant and last night I forgot to turn the oven off and the house started to heat up and my partner woke up really hot and discovered the fact.  He was very angry and then gave me the silent treatment this morning.  It's something that I do quite a lot.  I kept saying it was an accident and that I never mean to do it, but he said I do it too often for it to be an accident.  But it really is an accident.  I hate it when I do it, as it makes him so worried and makes me worry.  He sent me a message today saying he's worried about my ability to look after a kid.  I am worried too.  I heard on the radio about this case where a mother accidentally left her child out in a hot car to perish.  I don't think I would do this, as I think I would be focused on the baby - I am focused on our cat and have managed to keep her in good health - but what if it did happen?  What if I become even more forgetful when sleep deprived?  I'm starting to wonder if I do have ADD and am not really sure what to do about it.  I don't really want to go on medication.  Are there techniques to improve your memory of things like this?

As an FYI? My non-medicated ADD husband OD'd our son on antibiotics. We got lucky and poison control said he'd be fine. When you are tired and non-medicated, you might not deliberately hurt your child but accidentally. If this were Tylenol, our son would have probably gone into liver failure.[/quote]

My non-medicated XDH put baby DD on the bed and then got distracted, to the point where she woke up and rolled off and he thought she had a concussion and took her to the emergency room  (I was at work). [/quote]
