Re: [FEEDBACK] Sim gets straight out of bath/shower

From what I'm reading, the bug is caused by the baby

Try aging the baby up to see if you still have the issue

Added

My game just updated and I have aged the baby to a toddler.  Mother and father could both give the baby a bath until the new baby was born.  Now, neither of them can give her a bath (and she really needs one) I can take her to the bath and put her in but they take her right back out. And my game seems to stall whenever I give the adults tasks.  I have it so the dad feeds the toddler and he just stands there.  Mother is supposed to be changing the baby diaper and she just sleeps (even though I've cancelled the sleep 2x)  HELP!

Me too!  I had the same stalling issues with the adults.  Once the baby aged up to a toddler, everything ran much more smoothly, even though I now had two toddlers in the household (and no babies).  

I can replicate this and it definitely seems to be the baby.

If you have more than one floor, put the crib on a different floor than the baby. If you have one floor, put the baby outside while you bath the toddler

This issue can also be caused by the talking toilet and a urn/tombstone close to the tub

I will do that next time.  Ended up aging up other baby (that works, too) Also discovered that if they hit all their milestones (reach top level in each) you can age them to a child (not before- tried and failed)  I hope they get the bug fixed soon!

Is anyone else having issues bathing their toddler's? I've tried just about everything, but every time my sim tries to bathe the toddler, she puts the toddler in the bathtub for all of two seconds and immediately takes the toddler out again. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Hi @moonkitty6

I've merged you post with existing bug report

Please refer to the solution post for a workaround

In single bathtubs, I have no issue bathing my toddlers. But If I have a bath/shower combo, I cannot initiate a bath from adult to toddler. If the toddler initiates it, there no issue. But if the adult initiates it, it won't even queue up. Nothing happens at all.

Hi @naithehuman

do you have a baby on your lot ? Are you using any mods ?

Hm.

Did you try all the shower/bath combos ?

Every time the sim (no matter what age) goes to take a bath, bubble bath, bath with soak (spa day) or wants to give bath to a toddler it cancels the interaction and reacts to the toilet instead. 

do have mods installed. ? have you try replacing the toilet ?

I've put the bathtub in the garden until the baby problem is patched 🙂

Hi @anikohuiber

Do you have baby in your household ?

If so

This thread describes the toddler bathing issue: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4-Bug-Reports/TO-ADD-Can-t-bathe-toddlers-while-there-s-a-baby-in-the/td-p/5819747/jump-to/first-unread-message or this which was never fixed for soaks: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4-Bug-Reports/TO-ADD-Sim-gets-straight-out-of-bath-and-only-takes-showers/td-p/5058193/jump-to/first-unread-message

I had this problem too, and my Sim was finally able to bathe the toddler when I put a regular bathtub in, previously I had the cheapest bath/shower combo.  Before I replaced the bath/shower combo, I tried moving it outside, but the same thing happened; my Sim would put the toddler in the tub, sit down to start washing her and then take her out immediately and the toddler was still filthy.  There was also a baby on the lot, and I didn't make the connection until I saw this thread.  Hopefully this gets fixed soon.  I'm on a Windows 10 computer and have no mods or CC in my game.  

Tagging @anikohuiber for feedback

Yeah, it seems it's the same issue as the other so I'm going to merge

Only difference, the talking toilet is causing it. Seems they are not comfortable to take a bath with soaks with a talking toilet in the room

I had another problem with that lot that the sims would spawn in the worng place, than walking through the house to knock on the door. If you could check that one as well, would be great. Thanks,

I've moved your post to the Sims 4 forum where other players should be able to give you expert advise 🙂
