Usage notes
- Depictions of the symbol vary. Common variations include a diapered baby facing forwards with arms and legs extended or a baby crawling sideways,[1][2] and a person leaning over (changing) a baby laying on a surface or changing table.
- An an emoji, the most common display on operating systems (most of which depict the symbol within an orange or blue box) is the baby facing forwards. iOS, WhatsApp and Telegram—which uses animated version's of iOS's emoji—depict a baby crawling. The Unicode character itself, released in Unicode 6.0 in October 2010,[3] displays the former.[4]
