I think we can’t answer for this Rabbi, and what is surely not questionable but a definite is the rush to judgment demonstrated on this thread, on a Rabbi none of you besides OP have even met. In my non Rabbinic opinion, I would say that’s a lot worse than the act discussed.
Aryeh asked an innocent question, as he was second guessing his understanding of the propriety of babies in shul, and requested feedback. Those who provided feedback were helpful and reassuring to Aryeh. Those who suggested depression, emotional and medical neediness, or who passed judgment, are waaaay out of line. This is a real person we are discussing, not a hypothetical situation.
Think about it.
