I have no doubt that people have no conscious memories of surgery that happened when they were babies; Few people have conscious memories of any time before 2 years old [1]. That doesn't mean you're not learning before then. It doesn't mean you're not making associations. What I want to know is this: Of babies who had surgery with and without anesthesia, how many of them are afraid of doctors 10 years later? 20? Hospitals? Knives and needles? There's a ton of psychological effects that it could or could not be having! You will not get answers from anything less than a huge study, probably too huge to be remotely practical to consider.
