I used the word "genuine" because many to whom I have told this memory were incredulous. I especially remember a doctor, an otherwise wise sort, who flatly said "impossible". My mother was amazed, and my telling her the details (at the age of six) encouraged her to share her perspective of my birth, which was a breech delivery.
To my unflagging chagrin she told me that I did not waste my one opportunity to moon the whole world.

I am not aware of studies on the topic. Indeed how might one perform them? One thing I have learned is that birth and prebirth memories seem to be quite rare, and as longnshort has imputed, they are controversial. I wonder how representative that doctor's attitude was. No matter; my karma ran over his dogma.
