I don't know how old I was, and I had no cecept of language. I was lying down somwhere. There was a window to my left, and a sort of weird desk without a chair slightly to the right of the window. There was a McDonald's happy meal box on it. I remember thinking "What is that thing?" but without thinking the words. Most of the room was white, and I don't think the room was very big. There was also a door to the right of the desk thing. That's all I remember. When's the farthest back you remember?

I have a few memories around the late two/early three year old time period.

I am 35 and can still remember falling off the back of a white horse when I was 4.

My mother placed me on the back of a white horse to have a picture taken. She turned to discuss something, took her hands off my side. The horse took a step forward and I slid off the back and hit the ground. I can still remember it. Apparently traumatizing events register regardless of age.

My wife is still terrified of spiders due to an event with her mother and a spider from when she was 5.

I still to this day have a fear of of falling/heights.

i think i was three, but i was playing with a clothes hanger pretending it was a dirtbike.

When I was 4 and went to the Pharmacy with my mom for cough syrup.
I realised that I was going to get older and forget most of my earliest memories so I decided I would remember this particular moment.

I remember everything was dark but then I see one of those old movie count down slides and when it hit zero a picture of an old building by my grandmother's house came up. I also think it might have been the first thing I saw because the next thing I remember after that is me as a baby on the ground looking at my mom.

Back when I was 5, my mother and I visited one of her friends who was in prison. This was back when I lived in Haiti. It was him and 5 other men in their underwear and confined to a tiny cell made for 3 people tops. I don't know if it's different now or if it was this particular prison, but we had to be escorted to right outside his cell to have a conversation - so no actual one on one time. We could barely make out who were were talking to, the cell was so dark - and this was during daytime. When we did see him, I remember being scared because of how skinny he got - like a skeleton- I can't imagine they give prisoners too much food. I don't remember why he was in there or what was said, but damn :( Haitian prison is scary.

2nd memory is seing another family friend in a full body cast after a horrific accident. He was in a coma and we spent a long time just talking to him.

On a cheerful note: my third earliest memory is New Years day 2000, also in Haiti. I woke up and first thing I did was ask my mom for chewing gum. I remember that one especially because it seemed like it was going to be important -- I realized that time was passing and I wanted to remember what happened on New Years day. But I remembered the least significant thing ever- asking my mom for some juicy fruit.

For some time I believed that my oldest memory was pushing my three years older brother on a pushcart when I was two. But since I have video footage of that moment its hard to tell whether the memory is real or I just think I can remember it from watching the video.

So my oldest certain memory would be when I was five and got to the hospital to see my newborn sister for the first time.

Images in my mind from a vacation to Nag's Head NC from when I was 2, of watching a crab scuttle across the beach. I remember my third birthday party (which is odd, as that's the only one i really remember until 10, when I got my N64 and started gaming), and when my early childhood home was fumigated for termites.

Ah, no, i remember my 9th birthday too. Funny.

I think my earliest memory is playing on the beach at 2y old, followed by a couple of memories in my 4th year (so I was 3) of being ill, and of playing with my cousin.
