No. A child born in the UK is entitled to register and the absence should have no impact on the application.

No issue.
But you cannot apply for a passport directly; you will need to register child under section 1(3) of BNA (using form MN1) first.

Find out if your NCS you are going through offers the JCAP (joint citizenship and passport application) service.
Good luck and keep us updated
