I was thinking in this direction as well, but my thought was that she remembered the events and told them to at least one of the Apostles. If she didn’t then we would never have known about them. There was nobody at the incarnation but Mary and the Holy Spirit (maybe Jesus could be considered as being there as well). There were no Apostles until 30 years later, and they were probably born about the same time as Jesus, so wouldn’t remember anyway.Elizabeth referred to Mary as “the mother of my Lord” and Mary never corrected her. (Luke 1:43)
Also, to conclude Jesus’ early years Luke said that Mary “kept all these things in her heart”, (Luke 2:51) which would indicate to me that she didn’t go out and brag about her son like many mothers would do.
