At around 34:00 minutes, a butcher-prepared cow head wrapped lightly in cellophane can be seen on a platter in the refrigerator. Lasts around 3-5 seconds.

hit by car, indirectly shown as the bicycle is shown being hit, but you do not actually see the child die. There are numerous dialogue references to the child having died.

I haven’t seen it yet but copy pasting this anon ask from the emetophobiahelp tumblr for visibility:
it's when the squad in Vietnam gets bombed/gassed. People start freaking out, one guy starts to gurgle blood (no v, just like if he were gurgling red water and you could see the bubbles). One guy, Paul (who is a bit heavy set), just sits down in a daze along the chaos. Immediately after he sits down and stares off into space, close your eyes for about two seconds. Someone v's w visual but the audio is drowned out by the war.

There is a split second view of a baby in the hospital. There are several strollers shown with baby noises dubbed in. There's some photographs of characters as babies. But no one has any meaningful interaction with a baby.

people are implied to be having sex several times, but not shown directly. there is a brief background shot with a couple on top of each other on a couch at the party that is the most explicit, but occurs in background between unnamed characters. Mostly you get people sharing a bed and shower.

The main character has a panic attack at a party, and his girlfriend is embarrassed and chastises him. There are other times when he is overwhelmed or emotional and she shuts him down. One time, when crying over a picture of his deceased son, she attempts to throw away the picture, saying that she doesn’t like anything that makes him sad.
