I saw Baby Boom in its original release and then again the other day. Some of it does come across as a bit dated, but for me there's enough good to make this film still a pleasant experience. As written the Keaton character can be a bit pandering but despite this I like Keaton's performance quite a bit and think she's a major factor as to why this film works. It's not only her dealing with a new baby but a whole new way of life. That we experience together. I agree the first half of the film is stronger, but Baby Boom is still worth checking out after all these years.
