ELI5: Why can't I remember my birth/childhood?

I don't have *any* memories from when I was a young boy at all *(ages 0-4)*...BUT the now things I really do remember is being rocked to sleep by my Mom...that's about it. After 4, I have a few memories but really nothing from before that.


OH...I also have a Brain Disorder that may be related to this...lol my bad.

You aren't capable of forming permanent memories until you are about 18 months old. Your brain has not developed enough to start forming long term memories. It is a good thing, too, because you really don't want to be able to remember your conception.
