What is the correct term for a baby who newborn?

The most common and widely accepted term for a baby who is newborn is simply newborn.

While there are other terms used, like "infant" or "neonate," these generally refer to a wider age range beyond the first few weeks after birth.

Here's a breakdown:

* Newborn: Refers specifically to a baby in the first few weeks of life, typically up to 4 weeks.

* Infant: A broader term that can encompass babies from birth up to around 1 year of age.

* Neonate: Primarily used in medical contexts to refer to babies in the first month of life.

So, while "newborn" is the most accurate term for a baby who has just been born, you can also use other terms like "infant" or "neonate" depending on the context and age range you are referring to.
