What was the earliest memory you have from child hood? Was it a good or a bad experience?

Question

Mine is of age 2 and a half on holidays with my grandparents. We went camping and travelling through parts of Australia for 4 weeks. :)

Answer 1

I love that question. That gives you the understanding of when you became concious in your life. My first memory of this life is when I was about 3 months old and at an airport on my mothers shoulders looking out of a huge window. It was wierd.

Answer 2

Mine are debatable, I can't quite remember the order because all three were when I was around the 2-3yr old mark. I remember our house being lifted. Yes in NZ if you want to make a two storied house you lift the house, it goes on stilt things and the bottom level becomes the top and then they build underneath. I have vague memories of that. I also remember playing shops with my neighbour and he sold me rhubarb leaves and I ate them. They are deadly poison. Ended up severely ill in hospital, still remember the ride in the ambulance. Woohoo. Then I remember being held by my dad and swung around in the air, a happy memory but tainted with bad memories that follow with regards to my relationship with him which was abusive. That is a clear memory of a good time with him but one of few and it was a different memory from other memories with him, I remember feeling truly happy with him. All other memories even happier ones have a strange sinister feeling to them so Im wondering if the abuse commenced after this memory.

Just had to add that seriously there are people above to claim to remember times when they were 3 mths old and so on. Thats crazy. You can't. Perhaps they have seen photos which make them think they can remember but it is not possible to remember too far before 3, memories do not develop till this age!

Answer 3

It was neither good nor bad, I would say it was more of a surprise that was inquisitive!

I was about Three and a half, my mom found a mouse in the mouse trap and yelled. That was the shock part, and the surprise and curiosity followed there after.

But I see where you are going with the question and it is a good study to do...

I fell down a long flight of stairs that had no back to them somewhere along my fall I fell thru (or in between) the stairs, landing on basically the top of my head, my mother said I was 2 years old. A very bad and scary experience.

Answer 5

I was 9 months old and i took my cherry cough medicine without anyone looking - I remember feeling guilty

I was 13 months old and in the hospital for surgery and they put netting over my crib so I wouldn't jump out while my mother left me - I was terrified

Unfortunate for me but i can remember most everything that has happen in my life even repeat verbatim conversations --

Answer 6

You astral projected. Lucid dreaming is the position you easily administration the dream. Astral projection isn't dreaming, it really is only precisely what it says it really is. save education and get some educational books and textile on the options you should use this. it will be tremendous once you stumble on the fashion to administration it, kinda like using a motor vehicle.
