What’s worse is they’re not even smart about it. They’ll queue several “check infant” interactions in front of whatever I told them to do - like feed them - and if I don’t cancel these all these checks ever result in is “cuddle” or multiple “put down” actions so they just stand there picking them up so they can put them down. A couple times the “put down” instead of being on the floor was into the high chair, but they didn’t explore food with them afterward and unfortunately those weren’t times my infant was hungry anyway. It took 5 Sim hours to put the infant to bed once because they would just keep putting them on the floor or in the high chair, canceling my put to bed and even the infant’s auto attempt to just sleep on the floor.
Same with newborns - before the patch, my parent Sims would cycle through shush, feed, change if the baby wouldn’t stop crying. Now they just keep cuddling over and over unless I pause the game, cancel the queue, and tell them to feed or change diaper before restarting.

Yes! This is exactly it- check infant leads to cuddling and putting them down but cancels the actual feed or change diaper or useful interactions!

This overenthusiasm seems to extend to toddlers as well. I've twice now failed to celebrate toddlers' birthdays because since their needs weren't all full the parent kept queuing multiple "put down" actions even after helping them blow out candles, and as soon as they picked them back up it would cancel the "age up" action. Spent 60 or 70 dollars on candles for one of them, and each time, the parent would immediately pick them up again after putting them down, canceling the age up. Of course the toddler's needs were only getting worse the longer the attempt took. Eventually got frustrated and used testing cheats to kill Sim by vicious rabbit (even that she put off doing for a while so she could keep picking up the toddler and putting it down) then quit without saving. With my second attempt to age up a toddler, I told the parent to help blow out candles and then go jogging afterward - my standard go-to when a parent is getting in the way. But they still managed to queue an extra "pick up" action on the toddler! They canceled the poor baby's birthday, dropped them on the ground outside, then went for their jog.
