A childhood belief about sleeping

I used to think that when people were born, they immediatley fell sound asleep upon arriving in their home, and that the life you're living now is really a dream that you're REAL self--the baby--is having. For instance, if your eight years old, you're really a baby that's been asleep for eight hours having a very elaborate dream. When you died, your baby self woke up and continuted on with life, meaning you actually lived twice. I knew for sure I was just asleep, because when you woke up, you remembered your whole life as a dream. I had yet to wake up and remember my life as a dream.
