Do Babies Dream of Baby Sheep?

There is also when you parents or family members tell you stories of when you were kids and many years later you remember them but now you can't tell if you actually remember them or someone told you about it

I do not remember the floor time much at all.

I do remember a dog sticker from my crib. I know this because when I was 10, I visited a faraway aunt and asked my dad about the sticker on their bathroom wall. "I have seen this one before! Where did I see it?" He said they both bought a sticker pack when I was just born, and she put it in her bathroom and he put it on my bed.

I remember an absurd amount of things from 3 onwards, like not liking it how I was occasionally the last one to be picked up from Kindergarten, or that there were two parallel glass tunnels connecting buildings in my kindergarten, and I always wondered how to get to the other one (it was just for staff).

I do remember the first time I got brought to kindergarten, and how later I wished to go on my own and my mother was against it.

I do remember being told by my dad that I will lose most of my memories of this age, and it made me sad: how can I just erase all these wonderful memories of my friends and all the toys and things we have here? I wished for my last birthday, as I was turning towards 6, be remembered by me like it is, for the rest of my life.

I remember the way to my kindergarten from the flat we lived in, I remember the layout of the place, I remember a lot of the toys, I remember a climbing rack, I remember the carpets and other floor covering, I remember every room, including the long table they set up for birthdays with you sitting on one end.

All rooms are empty of people. I don't remember a single face.

I am positive I have episodic memories from when I was two years old

My oldest memory is a clown holding a bunch of balloons flying over the fence at my first birthday party. I then tried to fly with the baloons when i got them.

I told my mom about it decades ago, and she said there was a clown that jumped over the fence. Then I spent the rest of the party running around the house holding the balloons.

>That night my family watched a war movie on the VCR, maybe saving private ryan or something similar, and the helicopter struck me.

If there was a helicopter in the movie, then we can confidently exclude Saving Private Ryan.

It's kind of fascinating trying to think back of the earliest memories I still (or used to) remember. I'm not "old" at all but still these distant memories are literally from another world (in the sense that my mental model of the world was very different, as well as all the changes it went through)

> Why can I remember this stuff? I’m not sure.

> It may have to do with some of the rough emotional stuff

There is a strong pressure to censor this.

If kids remember, we could not do surgeries without anastesia on new borns, and could not marinate open wound in filthy diapers!

what a great artcle!

I've always doubted this stuff because I have some memories of things that happened when I was 2.
