Yes, a newborn baby has more muscles than an adult, but the difference lies in the number of muscle fibers rather than the total muscle mass. Newborns are born with a higher number of muscle fibers, which will mature and develop as they grow. However, adults have larger muscles overall due to muscle growth and development through physical activity and aging.

Muscles develop first. Cartilage forms in place of many bones in the embryo and baby, to make it more flexible on its way out of the womb. The cartilage is then replaced by bones in a process called ossification, and is usually finished by the time the baby is 6 months old. There are 206 bones in an adult body, you have more bones when you're younger. Though, the exact number of muscles is not know, there are a lot more muscles.
