I'm not sure if this is the case here. Did this baby die? I'm pretty sure it's a term though. In my American research, when I've seen a baby referred to as a "creature" the baby died. It appeared to have birth defects. I don't know that would be the case in the Azores though. I've seen babies called "creatures."
