I swore I’d never do that again.
one reason people don’t remember things that happened when they are very young is their brain is a lot different then. it’s called state dependent memory.
Entry from Steven Wright’s diary: Day One. Still tired from the move.
I’m not clear on what either of them have to do with the subject, but are you under the impression that they are the same person?
I’m not clear on anything. It seems the OP isn’t interested in communicating clearly himself.
It’s also called “The neonatal hippocampus isn’t fully developed, so newborns don’t make and retain long-term memories.” They aren’t even particularly good at short-term memory for a few days.
One of the reasons no one remembers anything that happened before about the age of 2 1/2, is the development of the hippocampus.
It’s also why toddlers’ memory for things like faces is very unreliable. They recognize their parents, but they don’t recognize people they haven’t seen for a few weeks, or people they’ve only seen a few times.
when I was just born. I was crying, because there was a bee quite close to me and I knew that bees can hurt you. I heard my mother talking to her friend, but not noticing my trouble. Not a month old I thought, what a stupid woman she was. Then I remembered that I knew her before my birth…
I don’t know whether this was a dream dreamt a long time ago or a memory…
In my earliest memory, I went swimming during an earthquake, then got trapped in a giant wall of jelly.

It’s said that Aesculapius, the Greek god of medicine, took notes during his own birth.
Yeah, well, the Beyonder built his own artificial womb and gave birth to himself!
Parents cover their face with their hands and baby thinks they’ve gone away.
Parents stick their thumbs between their fingers and babies think they “got your nose.”
Babies are dumb! Why would anyone think they learned anything from being expelled down a short, narrow fleshtunnel at 30 mph?
Cite?

I remember the taste of my own poo. (again?)
Darren Garrison the “face with their hands and baby thinks they’ve gone away” bit is related to the development of “object permanence” which typically develops sometime between 6 to 9 months. Goes along with stranger anxiety and separation anxiety, the ability to think of things when out of sight.
Yes babies learn for experiences from birth on, sensory input shaping brain development. That does not require remembering it.
Which of these four are the actual topic of this thread?
