Original sin is a myth. No one is guilty of Adam's sin. You are guilty of your own. If original sin was created in us, Adam would not be held gulty. Satan had no sin nature made by God. Sin is a decision. It is not some substance flowing in our veins.

A baby who has no knowledge is not sinful because sin has knowledge. Jas 4:17 Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.

Babies are not sinful. Isa 7:16 "For before the Child shall know to refuse the evil and choose the good,

Eze 18:20 "The soul who sins shall die. The son shall not bear the guilt of the father, nor the father bear the guilt of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be upon himself, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be upon himself.
