No, Shakespeare's work was not first published at his baptism. Shakespeare's plays and poetry were published during his lifetime, with the first collection of his plays published in 1623, seven years after his death. However, it is unclear if Shakespeare himself oversaw the publication of his work, or if they were published by others after his death.
Rumor is Shakespeare did not write his own plays published under his name they say he had help writing them.
Shakespeare only ever published his poems Venus and Adonis and Rape of Lucrece in 1593 and 1594 respectively. He was not responsible for the publications of his plays which were either pirate copies or published by his acting company. Shakespeare never claimed publication rights in his plays and never published them.

Many of his plays were published for the first time at that time.
