"In 1915, Effie Hotchkiss bought a new Harley-Davidson and attached a sidecar to carry her mother, Avis, as a passenger. The pair then set out from Brooklyn to see the Panama Pacific International Exhibition in San Francisco. Avis had instilled confidence in her daughter, and when asked if she had fears about the arduous cross-country journey, Avis replied, “I do not fear breakdowns, for Effie, being a most careful driver, is a good mechanic and does her own repairing with her own tools.” The pair were the first women to cross America by motorbike, at a time when the roads, where they existed, were simply horrendous. After visiting the Pacific Coast, the pair rode back to Brooklyn, for an epic 9,000-mile journey."

It is common usage in English to refer to it as a baby, even in utero. Just ask your mother. But you do bring up an important question, when is it a baby? Dont say "at birth", my son's best friend was born at 28 weeks in an emergency c section because of a car accident. He is a good kid and no less of a person because he wasn't born at 40 weeks.
