A newborn is literally a baby animal (including us human animals) who was born in the past month. Figuratively, newborn describes anything recently born or created, like a newborn interest in vocabulary. Little babies are newborns until they're a month old â four weeks is the official human newborn cut-off age. Then theyâre just regular olâ babies.
