| I'm just wondering, when one converts to Catholicism, do you stick with confessing sins since your Baptism? I was baptised in 2004 in the Episcopal Church. At this point, I believed that all my sins were forgiven (I had privately confessed and repented of my sins). If and when I make first Confession, will I have to confess mortal sins that occurred prior to my Baptism?

Yes, baptism forgives all sin. Confession prior to baptism is not necessary. It is only necessary to confess those sins committed after baptism.
