Yes, the G1 babies have always had symbols. (They weren't called cutie marks back then.) Except for some versions of Ember. I'm not sure why she didn't. As you pointed out, even the newborns and teeny tinies have symbols.
When my sister and I played with our ponies, we thought it was too embarrassing and made no sense that a pony should be born with a babyish symbol -- say, a bottle or a baby rattle -- and then have to grow up and keep that humiliating symbol
I think it would be a bummer if Baby Surprise had to answer to "Baby Surprise" her entire life and constantly get mixed up with her mom, ha ha!
I think Ember was the very first baby pony? I also agree with Haruna that they seemd to be going for the "your symbol appears when you discover your special talent" but by the time Hasbro produced the other Baby Ponies they decided they were born with a symbol. I wish Hasbro would have remembered Ember and showed what her symbol was and her talent. Ponyfan
There's a version of Ember with a star as her symbol. She doesn't appear to have a backcard story, so there's no real clue as to what it could mean, if you want symbols/cutie marks to have meaning. I don't think the storytape mentions anything about it, but it's been a while since I heard it (on YouTube).
