I was younger than 2 because I was at my in-home daycare, not the Montessori I switched to at age 2. My daycare provider laid me on the bathroom rug to change my diaper. The white bathtub was to my left, the dark wood vanity to my right. The rug was light blue. There was a window behind me and a was able to somewhat see out of it.
.
I am sure my daycare lady was just doing her job changing my diaper, but what she did felt good and I believe that was when I first discovered touching myself down there felt good.

Age 3. When I was in hospital with meningitis. I can still remember it clearly. I can remember my mom sleeping in a bed next to my cot. And my dad visiting with one of my brothers.

[DonkeyDan]

I hope you recovered well from it. A family friend had Meningitis when she was 7, unfortunately it caused some brain damage.

[Espresso-Grande]

That's so sad.

Fortunately, I fully recovered.

My moms neighour's daughter had meningitis when she was 5. She ended up losing an arm.

[DonkeyDan]

That's good you made a full recovery. Meningitis is pretty scary and can be devastating

[Espresso-Grande]

Thanks a lot for the MHO

I was 2, holding my mothers hand walking up a hill. A loud rattle came from an arid bush to the right and it shook. A blur then realizing my mother picked me up and started running down the hill.
It was just a visual till i mentioned it to my mother and she filled in more details it was a random hill on highway 96 in Montana near Black Hills. It was a month after my second Birthday.

I think my very earliest was when I was in preschool and a kid sneezed on my face and got mucus all over me including salty mucus around my mouth. Then I started gagging like, "... bleh... blergh... bleh... [pause, try to breathe]... BLEH! Blergh!"

[GoldenAxer]

Then the teacher sees my gagging and runs up and starts wiping the snot off my face while I'm like... "bllearghhh! Bleh... bleh! Gag... cough."

[GoldenAxer]

It was like a super loogie right across my mouth and nose and ugly brownish-green color. I still want to kind of gag thinking about it.

[GoldenAxer]

Childhood trauma... :-D Actually, I was hit by a car a couple of times when I was 4 and rushed to the hospital both times but I don't remember it at all, only what my parents told me about it. Yet I remember that kid's giant snot-booger on my face. I think that was far more traumatic to me.

[DonkeyDan]

Ew, yeah it's strange how we can remember some thing and not others.

[GoldenAxer]

These days I'm having trouble keeping track of chronologically. For example, I realized in hindsight that I made a mistake on here saying I watched a film while in university, only to look up the film and realize it was released after I graduated. Yet I could have sworn I saw the movie while I was a student, so my brain seems to have mixed things up.

[GoldenAxer]

* track of [things] chronologically [like I remember them happening, but at the wrong times] [...]

[DonkeyDan]

Yes I agree with that, I certainly misplace timing over the years, thinking some things happened before others when they happened after..

I have a lot of memories from my childhood but the first thing that came to mind when I saw this question was the blackout that occurred in 2003 on the east coast and part of the midwest in the US and in Ontario Canada. I was only 5 years old so I vaguely remember it. I don't remember the details but I remember that I experienced it and I think I was scared

[andreasderjuengere]

A little dim already... I must have been 3 or a little less?
Grandma had me on her arms and I discovered a pocket on her. I reached in - found nothing.
Grandma was NOT excited: it was her cleavage 🤗.
I remember that my reward was a slap on the hand.

Sitting in some sort of child seat, being set down inside the front room of our house, and my parents walked back out the screen door (assumedly to retrieve the rest of the items from the car) and then I fell asleep. My mind tells me this was on the way home from the hospital where I was born, but I cannot corroborate this.

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Having a dream about a bunch of dead people trying to kill me

[Dinosaursandanime65]

I also had another dream that was weird

[DonkeyDan]

I used to have quite a few weirdndreams as a kid.

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Yeah. This one time I also had a dream my cousin had a dildo for some reason. She didn’t use it, it was just there. But this dream was more recent. Probably about, 5 months ago. Maybe even 3. Sometimes I get BAMBOOZLED

[DonkeyDan]

That's an interesting one!

[DonkeyDan]

Do you like your cousin?

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Like like?

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Wanna tell each other about our dreams more detailed? If so, then we can do that when get back, we’re going somewhere

[DonkeyDan]

I was just curious as to if the dream had any meaning. Have a good day, wherever you're off to.

[Dinosaursandanime65]

Thanks.

Age 3 I was playing with kids and somehow one little boy used to make me cry telling me he will bully me if i didn't give him my chips lol

[mrkdvsn]

Among the first... would be my mom pushing down the street in my stroller, going to the neighborhood store. And I would watch the cracks in the pavement as we went

[Apson01]

When I was a kid, I was at the pool and a girl smiled and giggle at me every single time we made eye contact. My father noticed and teased me because my face was red... we didn't talked but I wish I did but life goes and you gotta move on.

[exitseven]

I can remember when I was 3 the little girl that lived next door that was 4 went to to kindergarten and left me all alone.

[IncognitoBandito]

Being on a boat in stormy weather when I was like 3 or 4

[najekim]

Arguing with my mother that I was still 2 and not 3 on my 3rd birthday.
