Does it feel like you existed before you were born?

To me it kind of seems like I existed before I was born even though I wasn't born yet. It's like I can picture the world then as if I was there. Does anybody else have this happen?

as a kid i had frequent deja vu episodes. made me think that i've always been around in some form. when the innocence left so did the deja vu. child-like wonder is the key to answering these deep questions i think.

I think it's the Hundu religion that sees a newborn baby as being very clairvoyant and divine.
