I tested out the new free baby update and created a new family with a new baby stage sim and a child stage sim and a young couple. The baby was cute for a little bit then the baby just became an endless stream of neediness and there were no more cute things happening. I could not keep the baby happy for more than a few minutes at a time. Not that much fun so I aged the baby up twice to skip over the toddler stage too.
The new babies are HUGE, I wasn't expecting that. It feels more like we have two stages of toddler but with even less control. The update added some very cute things but also kind of doubled down on the annoyance factor that is the baby and toddler life stage. I agree that the new babies' needs decay too quickly leaving no time for the other sims to do ANYthing else but baby care. It wasn't that fun to play. I feel very sorry for any older sim kid in the family because they'll get NO attention because the baby is so needy. Too much reality, not enough fun.
Another thing that stuck out was the M leg sitting position for babies, it's kind of weird looking, sitting with their little legs curving out in a kind of circle in front is more natural. Kids do the M leg sitting all the time though.
There are some very cute things the free update added to the game and I wish I could see more of them but I don't have the will to struggle with it. Not my thing, I guess.
