There is sometimes too much "baggage" associated with photographs of babies. Entertainers talk about never following children or animal acts (is that it? i don't remember) simply because the likelihood of falling flat on one's face are high. Photographs of babies often are difficult to critique and maybe the best thing is to just not even try.
I don't think it's much of a stretch to substitute "children" for "babies" and answer your question.
Although I have thousands of photographs of my son, I have only a few that I display publicly (online or otherwise), and none of them would be considered traditional kid pix.
