Why You Can't Remember Being a Baby

Your earliest memories aren't missing because you forgot them. They're missing because your brain erased them.

As babies, our brains are growing faster than at any other point in life, creating millions of new neural connections every second. But that rapid growth comes with a hidden cost. The same processes that help us learn language, recognize ourselves, and adapt to the world also overwrite and dismantle the memories formed during our earliest years. The baby in your family photos may look like you, but the mind that experienced those moments no longer exists in the way you imagine.

We'll explore the science behind infantile amnesia, neurogenesis, synaptic pruning, language development, and why even people with extraordinary memory can't remember being babies. Along the way, we'll uncover the unsettling truth about identity, memory, and what really happens to the person you once were.
