Can baby born abroad whose mother is American travel to the US on foreign passport

I'm a British citizen and my wife is an American citizen. We live in the UK, and we have a two-month old baby who was born here in the UK. My wife and child will be travelling to the US for three weeks soon, and we need to apply for a passport for the baby. A British passport is easier to apply for than an American one in our case. For an American passport, I believe we would also need to apply for an SSN. We intend to get a US passport eventually for the child anyway, but at this moment we'd prefer to apply for a British one. Does anyone on here know if the child is required by US law to enter the US on an American passport even though the child was born abroad and has never traveled, or would a British passport be okay? Many thanks.

At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...
