new baby

Fresh family addition

A new baby is an infant, especially one recently born or recently arrived in a family.

The phrase emphasizes the novelty and adjustment period: They're exhausted—they have a new baby at home.

It can also refer to the newest child in a family with older siblings: The new baby is keeping everyone up at night.
