That's true. If we did not have any conscious experiences before our present bodies came into being, then it seems implausible to suppose we will continue to have conscious experiences after our present bodies die. However this simply begs the question of why people don't believe in "life before conception". There is a great deal of compelling evidence for reincarnation collected by Ian Stevenson for example (who sadly died 3 months ago).
