This was me at 9 months. One morning my mom got up to check on me and I was just standing in the hall staring at her. She was so freaked out, like something straight out of the shining lol. Even stranger still was that my crib bars were up, so not only was I walking but I climbed up, over, and out of my crib. I was in a toddler bed before I turned 1 because my parents were deathly afraid that I was going to hurt myself seeing as the height of the crib bars were probably a good 4ft+ off the ground.

As a dad, I can confirm that babies are low-key terrifying.

Oh god, my little brother often freaked me out when he was a toddler. I distinctly remember sleeping and getting a weird feeling, then waking up to find him standing next to the bed, just staring at me silently 😭

My first memory is of escaping my crib at about 18 months old, so it's not impossible. Also, they never claimed to remember it, probably something their parents told them.
