身邊有不少準(zhǔn)媽媽或者新媽媽都說有了寶寶以后反應(yīng)變遲鈍了，記憶力也有所減退。真是這樣嗎？做了媽媽的人真的會(huì)變成那種腦子里只會(huì)裝著那個(gè)需要定時(shí)定量喂奶的小寶貝，別的一概不理會(huì)的milk brain嗎？

Milk brain can refer to feelings of disorientation and mental sluggishness reported by some mothers of newborn babies or total involvement in the care of a newborn baby, to the exclusion of almost everything else.

“牛奶大腦”可以指新生兒母親表現(xiàn)出的情緒錯(cuò)亂和大腦反應(yīng)遲鈍的狀態(tài)，也可以指這些媽媽們?nèi)硇耐度氲胶⒆拥纳砩希渌挛镆桓挪挥枥頃?huì)的情況。

It's a casual, common slur. Even women use it to describe how disorganized they feel in the first frantic days after giving birth. Yet milk brain is just a temporary effect, brought on by sleep deprivation, plus the need to learn (or relearn) the details of child care.

其實(shí)這是一種普遍的誤讀。就算有女性用“牛奶大腦”這個(gè)詞來形容自己產(chǎn)后幾天慌亂無序的狀態(tài)，但這也只是一個(gè)暫時(shí)現(xiàn)象，多數(shù)是因?yàn)樗卟蛔悖约靶枰〞r(shí)間學(xué)習(xí)育嬰知識(shí)等因素導(dǎo)致的。
