Your earliest memory

What is the first memory you have of your existence? Mine was being in a montessori school. They wanted me to eat a tomato, but I didn't want to so I wrapped it up in a napkin and threw out out... Nobody ever had a clue

I was 2 or 3, playing in a kiddie pool with my brother fighting over a toy plane. He took the plane from me and hit me in the head with it so I pushed him and he fell backwards and out of the pool and started crying.
There are pictures of it and I saw them around 12 or so and realized I remembered that day.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

I don't know, this is a tough one. I was thinking about this the other day, though. Sometimes I'll have these random memories pop in my head from when I was like around 4 or 5 years old. It's weird how certain memories, for whatever reason, were strong enough to leave an imprint like that to where it remains with you for that long.

Mine was at a family reunion. We were at a family pick nick and my cousin took me down to this stream. I remember there was a steep bank you had to walk down and on the way back up it I was really struggling. So instead of helping me he told me to step in the makeshift foot holes that people left from walking up the thing and I made it. I don't know why but it was a good memory.

One time I was on acid about two years ago and I had a flash of memory from when I was like 6 months old. I remember being in the living room in our old house and my dad was in the room. It's only like two seconds of memory but it's deep. Maybe I just created the memory in my mind and those two seconds never happened that way.
Aside from that I remember the bulk of my childhood with all sorts of various memories.

Ahh yeah I remember the morning of my last day of Kindergarten. All the other kids in daycare were doing what they'd normally do in the mornings before school, running around, playing tag, drawing things on the ground with chalk. I instead ran around shouting and singing "IT'S THE LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!" until the bus came.

I recently saw a picture of my self, it was when I was getting my first hair cut. I asked my mom how old I was in the picture because I remember that day pretty well. I was right around 2 years old. I remember I was freaked out about the hair clippers, so the lady cutting my hair put it on my arm to show me it wasn't going to hurt me. I think we got ice cream right after that.
Using that memory as a reference point, I have some memories that go back a bit before that, maybe as far back as 18 months old.
I think I have a pretty good memory...My working memory (short term) isn't the best, I often do things like locking keys in a car, or losing something I just set down, etc....But I remember the details of my past pretty well and easily. (even with smoking cannabis daily ) . I can recall a moment of my past and a cascade of memories and details around that moment come back to me.
I also remember many of the dreams I've had through out my life. I can think of a particular dream, and every dream I've had that either took place in the same setting (I often go to the same locations/places in my dreams, it's like an actual seperate world) or has common associations or relations to that dream will start to come to me like a stream of memories.
Most of my early memories are vague...like fractured memories of dreams. It's kind of hard for me to differentiate my very earliest of memories from my dreams. I also have some bits of memories that are very dream like that don't seem to be from "this life". But I'm not going to go off on that tangent.

Im pretty sure I remember my mom changin my diaper in the bathroom. Thats prolly my earliest memory. I also remember my little high chair thing I ate on. Had a teddy bear face on it and was all multi colored speckled and trippy. And my first nightmare of a zombie comin out a closet at me and I couln't crawl up the steps in time to get to my dad.

I was maybe 3yo, when I unzipped the zipper from our beanbag chair and my dad sat on it 
That's the earliest I can think of atm, like Niffla said, these memories pop out of nowhere, I usually forget them pretty quick.
On a side note, I remember the first(=2nd)time I smelled pot at the age of 14, and instantly had this deja vu moment. Took me a while to remember where had I smelled it before..
Turned out to be at my friends house when I was like 5-6, his parents smoked pot and I realized this while smoking with them ten years later

Mine is of trying to see the TV over the plastic slide-in gate that was blocking me in my door. My parents were downstairs watching a movie or the news and I simply could not stand to be contained!

My first memory was a deception, too 
The day I realized that if I heard someone walking down my hallway during nap-time, I could get in bed for a minute, close my eyes, and would appear to be asleep. Then they would leave and I could resume shoving stuff up my nose and eating felt-tip markers and catfood and other normal 2-3 year old stuff.

Are you serious? Man I have not one single memory from being an actual baby. And never will. All of my earliest memories are from after I learned to talk and walk. I think your admin status has given you powers far beyond my meager and pedestrian comprehension.

I don't remember.
Although I do recall watching my dad take out the trash one day and coming to the realization that I was me, and he was a different person, and all that kinda jazz. It was pretty trippy. Like coming out of ego death or something.
In general though I have pretty terrible memory. My first solid memories that I know for sure happened are probably like from the third grade.
