Do you remember yourself before 1 year old?
I have a few memories from before I was one year old! I remember going for drives and looking at ships on Lake Superior. What's your earliest memory?

Its medically impossible to remember anything conscientiously.

Childhood amnesia may also be due to the lack of neurological development of the infant brain, preventing the creation of long term or autobiographical memories. Two key structures in the neuroanatomy of memory, the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex, do not develop into mature structures until the age of three or four years. These structures are known to be associated with the formation of autobiographical memories of the type notably missing from adult recollection of early childhood.
 
not sure I think i kinda remember a house I was in and stuff kinda fuzzy really, but at 6, 7 I can think about more easily

Damn, so it's not just me. I always feel like I can't remember anything about being a child, even though barely 12 years ago I was like 5.

I don't know man, I definitely remember a few things from when I was around 2. They aren't super clear memories or anything, but I somewhat remember the place we were living in.

The reason I know I was 2 is because that's the age I moved to a new place, and the memory is not from the new house we moved into but the old one.
 
I remember being in a confined place with a cord attached to my bellybutton...wait a min...wth!!!
 
I remember waking up on my third birthday. That's my earliest memory. I also remember my sister's second birthday.. I was 3 at the time.
 
I remember being about 3 and fell out my bed, cracked my face on the way down and really messed my nose up !

I kinda remember being about 2, sitting on a park bench eating some huge ice cream - my parents confirmed this as it was a special HUGE ice cream that was about as big as me lol - was at a theme park.
 
I think I remember my baptismal, I was 8 months then..
I remember some of it, when I saw my baptismal pic and remember some details on what I see during the event.. I think it's called photographic memory..
 
I have recollections that i was playing this very cool toy car, just learned to walk... using shelfs and stuff like that as support... so i was not there yet with walking. I was driving it across a low shelf and all went horrible cause shelf ended and i drove my beutiful car down from the shelf and broke it... Then i remember that i searched for that car many years after that, i tought it was stored somewhere but i guess parents put it into trash after is was broken :/...

This all happened when i was 19

Lol no seriously i think i was somewhere at 1.5yer(?) dont know exactly when babies start to walk and roam around.

Yes, I can agree to this. I have memories from 1-2 rooms from our old apartment. Haven't been there since 5 years old.

But I guess what I remember is, from age 3-4.
 
yaa, i remember when i first time pee on my father face hahaha,...
 
I agree for a lot of memories this could be true, but I really think that I can remember before I was a one year old!

I think it's more likely that at one point in time you may have saw a home video about yourself or where you lived at that age, which can confuse you into thinking you remembered it as it was happening, when really your just remembering things off the video.

Maybe not though. Earliest I can recall is probably 3 or 4.
