I will have the opportunity to shoot a newborn session soon.

I was wondering if any of you have come across or used a life like new born Doll and where it would be available.

I would like to practice some lighting arrangements before hand.

I thank you for your comments in advance!

Look online for dolls. A quick search didn't turn up what you want. I did learn something interesting, though. Those pacifiers that we call binkies, people in England call dummies.

You might try a thrift store in the toy section. Cheaper and quicker than ordering. Or Walmart or somesuch. You don't need quality, just approximation.

You don't know where to buy a doll?

I bought "George", my practice doll, from Walmart. If you're just checking lighting, it is perfectly fine.Those real-life babies were way too expensive. Message me if you want to buy some of my barely used equipment. Switching my focus.
