We were planning on applying for both at the same time, but it sounds like if the UK one is slow, we may be able to leave and re-enter the UK with their US passport. If they do flag the US passport and no visa in the baby's passport, did you investigate how a change of status works? (hopefully, the UK passport would be waiting for us on return!).
