Alright:
Current Stats
Pregnancy: 3
Birth: 2
Newborn: 2
Infant: 1
Toddler: 1
Total: 2 with one on the way.
I was able to age the first up two days early. However, I am now struggling with the second Elenor ended her stay. Also really low on money and not sure how to get toddler stats up; I might try another baby shower, just keeping the matriarch mood up...usually sleep has been a challenge, never mind trying to paint. I have been living off the money trashcan bottles/diapers/plate fund. Books might be the better way to go.
I am learning you must rush tummy time to the point they can do it independently. Once they do that, spamming the baby mat interactions seems to help collect the other milestones. I had to physically pick up the infant and learn to sit and crawl to make those two go faster. One time each, as opposed to endless tummy time.
I foresee the next few infants being around for five days until I start getting teens unless I get a stay-over prompt. Why the official rules say you are supposed to have them relax, it was only with the supporting help of Elenor that I was able to achieve the milestones. I think I will follow my rules on learning all essential milestones to age early.
3 Fine Motor - Reach, Grab, Toe in Mouth
6 Gross Motor - Lift Head, Tummy to Back, Back to Tummy, Creep, Sit Up, Crawl
4 Social - Smile, coo, laugh, able
Most social, they learned automatically with little for me, but a few talking prompts.
I might add, try to find one food and finger food they like for the challenge.
The gross motor slows down things, as they cannot do tummy time on their own until they master the first three milestones, which take about 6 to 9 tummy time with adult sessions to do. They learned to creep and sit up independently, and then I had to have her teach them to crawl. They might have been able to do it on their own, but teaching seems to help speed up.
