I think they are a bit smaller than that. I have a year old that is about 11 inches. I got her at about 9 or 10 months old and she was 9 inches. I don't know how long a newborn is, though.

Found this thread on this site with a few pictures of newborns. Unless you need exact measurements then the pics are a good way to see how big they are :D
