Please, work on the babies in this game.

I love the toddlers, thank you for adding them. But the babies in this game are a hot mess.

The skin coloring for the babies don't make any sense with the parents skin color. My black couples just had a pale skinned baby (let me reiterate, when they're both black), and my Asian couple (who I made very pale skinned) had a tan color baby. Why is this? I don't use CC at all, just the game's default skin colors.

Can you guys try to implement this in the game?:

(It's from a modder, but you see how they added hair and different PJ options too?)
Or this with eye color variations:

I'd rather not download mods, but instead have it officially placed in the game by you guys. That way I don't have to worry about updates and such.


So yeah, besides the "attached to the bassinets" feature, lack of hair, unable to change clothes and the same clone faces.----The skin coloring issue is my biggest complaint right now. So I'd be happy if you guys could work on that for now.

Oh, Thanks for at least not making them burrito babies though.

    I don't mind the bassinets, I like them actually; just not so much the factor that they're tied to the darn things. Makes it very annoying when a child sim goes and coos at the baby but if your sim wants to change their diaper they can't the child is in the way, and it's not like you can shoo them away. Their cry is terrible always sounded to me like some prehistoric dinosaur in the sims 4, the previous sims games the babies cry sounded better. I do miss the strollers and how you could take your baby/toddler for a stroll.

    It would be very interesting if Maxis changed the babies of the Sims 4! They're just objects. They wanted them to be more "free" equals the Sims 2 and 3. It would be nice if they had to change clothes, bathe in a sink or bathtub, could teach them to walk and also that their skins be changed! Seriously, the Sims 4 babies look more like those dolls you buy in children's stores! I hope you have that in the future...

    I like the Sims 2 and 3 babies better, because they're more "natural". The Sims 4 babies are just "Sims-object" connected to the cradle. I wanted so much for the newborns of TS4 to be more real!

    I found some old sims 2 pics of the babies and they are so cute.

    Yes I agree. I don’t like how the babies look in sims 4. Gives us different hairstyles for the babies. Don’t have to be a lot. Same thing with clothes. Also, we should be able to carry our babies where we want to. We need more baby furniture such as cribs/cradles, bouncy swings, changing tables, blankets and pillows, strollers and eventually car seats when we cars. Just some ideas.

    First I would love to thank you for my beloved toddlers. They are ALL THAT!!!! Also, Seasons is on point as well. But come on guys, you have to admit that the babies are lame. I remember the ground baby in Sims 3. But I found a way around that problem. But it's so sad when my family is all around their holiday tree and opening up their presents. Having the time of their lives and I take pics of everyone. Then I realize that the baby is stuck upstairs all by herself. That makes me very sad. Yes, I could bring the bassinet aka baby coffin downstairs. But why she just rocks back and forth no real expressions or reactions. I think this game came a long way and it's time to include the babies in the mix. I know everyone doesn't like babies and they don't have to play with them. But it would be soooooooo nice if you could unleash them and let the ones who loved them have them. That's all I want my family play to be complete. Thank you for everything, you guys have done so far.
