Your earliest childhood memory

Nathyrra · Nov 21st, 2008, 09:14 AM

I got thinking today if it's possible to remember your own birth or babyhood?

Anyone got any cool memories from being teeny weeny?

Think my earliest memory was being in a pushchair, pretending to sleep. then I fell asleep <.< This memory was from roughly 10months of age? Anyone got any earlier ones?

I remember being in the pushchair when it was raining, the raincover over my head.
And anothet time running about in a snowsuit at my brothers old school (this was demolished when i was 3 i think)

I vaguely remember swimming in Myrtle Beach wearing a pink and black polka dot bathing suit that was lost in a hotel room somewhere when I was about 2.

I also remember potty training.. just over 2.

I have often thought about this... wonder if a babies birth could be video taped, and then showed to tha tbaby everyday until the age of ten, would this help them remember it, or would they just remember watching the tape all the time?

I think too much lol

I think the earliest memory I have is cutting my hand on some glass. I remember not crying, seeing a LOT of blood and my mother screaming 'OH MY GOD!'. Apparently there was just a little nick... seemed worse than it was... I think I was about 1 and a half maybe 2...

I think my earliest memories are from about 4 years old.

I think showing a birth tape would only mean the kid remembered what was on the tape! lol bit like writing a diary, if you then read some bit over and over that takes over your memory of the event.

I can remember having a nappy changed when i was little, and i was younger than 2 by the time i was out of nappies!

It was always a huge event at home so I remember the tree,the lights,my present.....spilling egg nog all over my sister's new dress...
