New brain scans show infants do store memories – but the brain later loses access to them.
Infantile amnesia is about forgetting, not failing to form memories.

I described a cupboard near the door & their positions relative to the cot, to my parents. I told them of the formula tin in the cupboard, too.
They said my description was accurate.
I was in that room until I was 6 months old.
I was 2 when we moved house.
