One major instance I can think of is that when the Ghostbusters are put in the psychiatric ward, they're seen wearing straitjackets.

No, but there's a scene showing a baby on a ledge high above the street. The baby is flown off (by the evil spirit of a living man) and doesn't come to harm.

A baby is repeatedly abducted (or nearly abducted in some cases) as a major plot point. However, the baby eventually returns to his mother safely.

No, but there's a scene showing a baby on a ledge high above the street. The baby is flown off by the evil spirit of a living man who is planning to subject it to spiritual possession. The possession comes very close to happening, but the baby is ultimately saved, having come to no harm at any point.

Baby Oscar is described as "smelling a bit ripe" by Venkman, who then goes on to say that he might have had an accident himself.

While there is no electro-therapy there are two ghosts who were given the chair. This may be close enough to upset viewers

“S*ssy.” Venkman also asks Vigo if the men like him in a way intended to degrade him and there’s a joke where the punchline is Ray and another man saying they love each other while under the influence of mood slime.

Not in the final film, but there was a deleted scene where a possessed Ray crashes Ecto-1A. You can see some leftover setup shots in the montage.
