Baby Symbol Emoji
Meaning
The symbol for a baby, usually used to indicate a room suitable for changing a baby. Often located in or near public restrooms.
Typically depicted as a simplified white baby silhouette wearing a diaper on an orange or blue square background. Most platforms show the baby seated facing forward with arms and legs outstretched, while Apple and WhatsApp instead depict a crawling baby in profile.
An early Google design displayed a yellow baby figure wearing a diaper, as did Facebook's initial design. Another Facebook design previously depicted the baby as crawling in profile, while a Microsoft design previously had a red background.
This emoji predates the inclusion of emojis within Unicode. It was first added to early Japanese emoji keyboards by SoftBank in 1999.
