I react differently to this removal of the full picture.

The original had the mother's breast on the left with the grimacing baby
on the right.

One possible interpretation is that the baby has recoiled from the
nipple and is grimacing at an unpleasant taste. Possibly the mother has
applied the *wrong* lotion.
 
Without the breast in the picture there is no way of knowing what the
baby may be responding to.
