Like Isis I don't really know which memory came first, as I didn't really have any concept of time or language.
I remember staring up at my butterfly mobile in the crib.
I remember a lot of moments where I didn't yet have capacity to speak but was very much stunned by peoples behavior. In an adult way, while words weren't even in my mind I already could see people were not thinking things through. I spent most of my childhood parenting the adults so I guess I came in knowing that would be my role.
Like Aleksi I too remember the soothing warm glow of the womb. I as a kid would climb under blankets trying to recreate that.
In contrast to all of you here I find it interesting my husband doesn't remember anything before 8. He had a very gentle childhood. They say emotion helps memories be deeply ingrained so it makes sense his calm mostly emotionally neutral childhood didnt leave many memories.
