memories are in theory a recollection of a specific sequence of neurons firing. Triggering a memory is refiring all those same neurons. A foetus could, in theory have memory, but because their brains are growing at such an incalculable rate, they get lost in the traffic.

good point, they would have to be stored tangibly in some way, although i think there are still aspects to how this works that have to be analysed
