a number of EG children were interviewed about their birth experiences, and quite a few of them were able to recall details that they had never been told, which would otherwise require first person experience to have known.
I would take this with deep skepticism. People can be incredibly wrong about things like whether the kid ever heard something talked about. It is very easy to do this kind of memory research wrong, and arrive at incorrect conclusions.
It is also hugely implausible from a neurological development perspective, even granting that PG brains are different. The neural hardware to form explicit (retrievable) episodic memories simply isn't there in the neonate brain.
