Please help, my Sim's needs won't decay

My Sim's motive are automatically refilling and staying full without decay. Happening to all of them. It's driving me crazy, only thing that's changed is she's recently had a baby. Not playing with any mods or CC and she has no traits like never tired etc.

Packs I have:
Cottage living 
Eco lifestyle 
Horse ranch 
Seasons 
Growing together

Life and death

Crystal creations 

What I've tried:
-Testingcheats true then clicking on sim & post box and trying to enable needs decay
-opening CAS 
-returning to a previous save (fixes it briefly then starts happening again)
-repairing the game via EA
-uninstalling and reinstalling the game & packs
-renaming the file, opening a new one and adding back in saved file. This took me back to before the baby was born, fixed the issue then started again when the baby was born. 

Tearing my hair out, any ideas? I assume it's a glitch related to the baby 😥

 

I tried aging up the baby and then going through the whole renaming file process, but issue was there on reload.

  • Try enabling needs decay on the postbox, then play for a little while, then disable needs decay on the postbox. Then play for a little while. Then enable needs decay again. Then see if that helps.

    Thanks for your reply, I think the save file was corrupted. I ended up putting the family and house on to the gallery and loading them into a new save file. Shame to lose my relationships with other households though!
