pre-existence or Beforelife is the belief that each individual human soul existed before conception, and at conception (or later, depending on when it is believed that the soul enters the body) God places one of these pre-existent souls in the body. In Christianity, pre-existence contrasts with traducianism and the more widely accepted version of creationism which both hold that the individual human soul does not come into existence until conception or later.
The boundaries of the beforelife are debatable, since there is controversy over when a human life formally begins.
Some atheists cite the lack of a recollection of a beforelife as evidence that there is no afterlife.

Genesis 2:7 And Jehovah God proceeded to form the man out of dust from the ground and to blow into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man came to be a living soul.
Psalm 139:14-16 I shall laud you because in a fear-inspiring way I am wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful, As my soul is very well aware. My bones were not hidden from you When I was made in secret, When I was woven in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw even the embryo of me, And in your book all its parts were down in writing, As regards the days when they were formed And there was not yet one among them.
Anatomy: The Bible accurately says that ‘all the parts’ of a human embryo are “in writing.” (Psalm 139:13-16) The brain, the heart, the lungs, the eyes—these and all the other body parts are ‘written down’ in the genetic code of the fertilized egg in the mother’s womb. Contained in this code are internal timetables for the appearance of each of these parts in proper order. And just think! This fact about the development of the human body was recorded in the Bible almost 3,000 years before scientists discovered the genetic code.

Going "to heaven or hell" is a personal belief (yours) and the concept is not altogether accepted. With that out of the way, to answer your question: the bible says nada about pre-conception existence.
But I will tell you now that you were a twinkle in the eye!

suited Christian habit should not be desperate by using what people answer in Yahoo solutions. suited Christian habit is laid out in the Bible, commencing with the words of Jesus, then, Paul, Peter, John and others. no rely how confusing we attempt on our very own do we ever gain fulfillment. it extremely is in basic terms with God's Grace and Mercy do we do stable in that area. no rely how righteous the guy, or suited with regard to Christian standards they are, the extremely trustworthy one will consistently say he/she ought to do extra effective. the nice and comfortable button is to be consistently striving to do extra effective and walk extra completely in the footsteps of Jesus Christ. as a ways by way of fact this sort of witness does the habit that maximum Christians make? some not stable in any respect. many cases it extremely is confusing to tell who's a Christain and who isn't. for my area i'm blessed each time I come accross a conservative Mennonite, an Amish Mennonite, an Apostolic Christian, and others like them, by way of fact their habit and witness as a Christian is extremely powerful.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth, Genesis 1:1. Genesis 1:26 says, "And God said, let us make man in our own image, after our own likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth." Verse 27: " So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them." I hope this was what you where looking for.

13For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.
15My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth,
16your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.
(Psalm 139)
Hope this helps. God Bless.
