The formula must be exact "I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." Many babies were baptized at birth, usually by the "parteira" (the midwife) or some member of the family. Those baptisms were usually recorded by the priest in the parish registry. A sub condicione baptism is when the priest then re-baptizes the baby in case the original baptism performed at home was not valid for whatever reason (usually because the correct formula was not used).

My understanding is that a baptism may be recorded "sub condicione" by a priest when it is the second baptism of an individual, and the priest has a concern that the first baptism might not have been performed exactly right-- such as a baptism done by a lay person. The term describes the condition of the baptismal rite rather than that of the baby.

I get the general gist that the baby was born in less than ideal health, just wondering if there was something specifically wrong. Thanks.
