You have gotten some great advice here. Your brain MUST have quiet and rest to recover. Stressful things like loud music, reading till all hours on electronic things, or even stressful talking can put you a step back. The grocery store can be overwhelming. The shiny floors, the bright florescent lights, the bright colors, the overwhelming perfume, the pushing, the blocked isles that you need to get into and it takes me all day to recover.
TTC while wonderful and miraculous it also can be stressful. Perhaps a short break would allow your rattled brain to recover. As someone else said its like being put on bed rest when pregnant to protect the pregnancy and baby. Be kind and patient with yourself. Dont force answers from your head just yet. Just pull up a chair, and see this as a way to be given permission to rest.
Get a teenager from the local high school cheap to help you do housework. cook easy one pot meals. hire another kid to come walk the dogs. If you are TTC dont be the one to clean the kitty box. That is NEVER a pregnant womans job as it can make you sick.
Give yourself permission to slow down, and smell the roses.
