Please use this thread going forward: [GRO] Infant/Toddler wont achieve milestones | EA Forums - 5053288
Yes, once i removed my play mates from the lot and did tummy time again, i was able to get two more milestone, roll over to tummy and roll over to back. I will try this again because my next bunch of children are about to graduate from high school and i will be moving them to another lot and playing that lot for a while.
but i will note that all of my sims on my original family lot lost access to their milestones before the split and move happened.
NOTHING WORKS. None of my infants are able to reach milestones. I have tried everything suggested on this thread. Im so upset! I cant play my game because of this bug!! I tried repairing. Removed all mods. Eviction. Nothing will work. Infant still does absolutely freaking nothing. It is unable to achieve any milestones at all.
Probably silly question: are you actively playing the household where the bugged infant lives when you try to achieve milestones?
I ask because I have a sim who got an NPC sim pregnant without me knowing (through mods), then got a girlfriend, got engaged, got her pregnant, and eloped all before his first son was born. You know, like sims do.
Anyway, the first son lives in a household that I don't actually play with his single NPC mom. Wanting my sim to be a good dad, once his first son hit the infant stage, I started having dad invite his son over to hang out (don't ask me how that works; he just talks on the phone and then his infant son appears, alone and unable to move, on a little placemat on the curb). Further wanting to be a good dad, I decided to try to work on infant milestones with son #1 while he was visiting.
What I discovered is exactly what you're describing: the bars say he is making progress towards milestones, but he never actually gets them. Since it was my first ever experience with sim infants, I thought it was just infuriatingly difficult to get these milestones, until son #2 came along (this one is actually part of the active household) and the milestones came like butter. So, it seems that when a sim is not part of the active household, they cannot unlock milestones no matter what.
I have infants across multiple households failing to complete milestones.
I've read through the suggestions and tried some of them.
I've tested with and without mods.
I have one family with twin infants (nightmare).
I have several other families with infant stage and rotate play through them.
Some milestones complete and others don't.
I looked up all the milestones and then realized there were a lot that despite the interactions they do to trigger these milestones, nothing every happens.
It varys which ones but commonly are the crawling, standing, clap, wave, smile, talk. I get the diaper blowout, peed on caregiver, some of them get the learned to grasp or rollover where others didn't/won't. The travel/vacation and visit family works while first visitor doesn't. It's so frustrating.
Oh and one infant keeps getting duplicate milestones, they don't show as dups they just pop up two or three times after receiving the milestone.
Just had this issue with my infant getting the action/notification for the crawling milestone. After four notifications, the milestone is still locked and all he can do is scoot. I can’t evict my family bc they have a garden and cow plant (part of a challenge). This is the second infant for this family first generation. First infant no issues. No mods ever used.
