I know if you have short term memory loss, you loose thoughts of everything day by day. But what happens if you dont sleep for 48 hours, will you still remember everything? or will your thoughts start to fade after one day..?

I am 27 years old and a mother of two. Not ever day but probably 3 times a week I don't remember where I put things and I think my children have placed it some where, or they lost it but in actual fact it was where I left it. Is it normal to have short term loss of memory at a young age? An example of my memory would be this...the other day I had a can of pop and I laid it down just for a second, and went off to do another thing, not even five minutes later I couldn't find it. When I am trying really hard to find something, I get a real sharp pain in the front of my head and then my memory gets worse again. Is there something wrong with my brain that controls my memory?
