Oh, all the poor babies getting skipped which is the very first life stage of a Sim's existence into the world. Well, my objective for babies is to form a close bond with their parents. And older brother(s), sister(s), grandparents, uncle(s) and aunt(s) if I can. Plus, I love taking them everywhere. Unfortunately, there are no double, triple or extremely rare quadruplets type strollers. Because a single parent can only take one baby/toddler at a time. When it comes to bonding, it also helps to have the mother deliver the baby herself for a boost in relationship.Spoiler

I wish there was an option for older siblings to meet their baby brother(s) or sister(s). So many opportunities wasted with the youngest life stage.
I agree with an earlier comment made by starguru about enjoying the full experience from baby to elder or beyond. I like taking my time to get to know my Sims as it is true that each one is unique and different from any other. Thus, full of surprises and quite endearing. It's easy for me to get attached because the A.I. that simulates these Sims can be so relatable and realistic to real life. I become genuinely invested in trying to guide Sims through their virtual lives as best I can. I can't really help if I don't even learn and understand the psyche of each individual A.I.

Very true about your spoiler comment concerning missed opportunities and wishing TS3 had an option for older kids to meet their baby siblings. Like the interaction in TS2. I forgot what it’s specifically called, but it’s this one:
I wish there were other similar TS2 interactions available in TS3, from bathing babies in the sink to all the games children could play together, like Mary Mack and Cops & Robbers. With more interactions like these, I’d think simmers might enjoy the uniqueness of each life stage more and may want to skip them less overall.
Modders have added much to younger life stages though. From the “no-stretch, children can… series” to toddlers being able to scribble on walls—these add more activities for them to do, which is something I greatly appreciate.
I also love those trailers! They’re a great illustration of what I love best about all the possibilities with generational play and what makes each life stage special.
