Since the last patch, I've been noticing thought bubbles that didn't appear as often before. I don't know if it means anything, but it's fun to speculate. I will list them below, let me know if you noticed them as well or if you found different ones !1) The diaper : I've been seeing this one a lot, several times in a single sim day. Usually, I only see it over pregnant sims. My sims in the screenshots were not pregnant, had no children, had no wishes to have babies, and no aspirations related to family. But they had this thought bubble ALL. THE. TIME. I really think improved babies are coming and I believe this is a hint.2) The horse : not sure about this one, but I don't remember seeing a thought bubble with a horse before. I might be wrong though.It happened several times in the past couple weeks, when sims were around cats or dogs especially.3) Nessie : I saw the Loch Ness monster quite often as well in the past couple of weeks, even when watching videos from game changers (the screenshot is from a Clare Siobhan video). It could be the sea monster from Get Together, but the bubble really striked me, I don't remember seeing it before. Thoughts ?

Diaper thought bubbles is from Parent Hood gamepack, sims growing up with happy toddler or greater trait will have the bubbles pop up once in a while.

I play a lot and I'm sure they never appeared as often before. I started seeing this very recently, at the beginning of December I would say. I think it was after the skintone patch. Now, is it a hint or a bug, I don't know.

I already know all of them and don't see any hints in there.I'm still very much on the hype train for improved babies and a horses pack.

I think a big babies update is coming, it might be worth checking the future cube as sometimes there are hints to new packs/updates on there

Those are old thought bubbles and not hints, the diaper one is supposed to be if your sim had a happy childhood I think. I get that one with Evie Delgato who I took good care of when growing her up.What's probably is a hint is how we could wash toddlers in sinks and now we can't because they patched it. Probably because it's supposed to come with an update which could be related to babies.

New (?) thought bubbles that could be hints

Interesting that they were already in the game because I've never once recall seeing any of these ???? expect the drum thing maybe

I know that the diaper isn't new, but I used to see it once in a while only, and not on every sim. Nowadays I see it all the time/on every sim (even those that don't have the happy toddler trait etc). As soon as they wake up they have the diaper bubble. I find this odd, but nevermind it's probably a bug of some sort.
I agree with you about the sink interaction, that got me excited !

Do babies need upgrading, though? The toddlers are the best they ever were in the series, I feel, and it's not like there's much to be done with literal babies, the ones in the crib. I guess some people really want the option to carry them around the house but that by itself wouldn't be a huge update.

It may be bigger than you think. According to something I read by a modder on Tumblr, the Cribs are actually the Baby object, not the baby itself. It's why all cribs have to be overrides because that's the actual baby.

So carrying the baby around may require more coding than it seems.

I think taking a look at how the babies in The Sims Freeplay are designed is enough of an answer.

They already acknowledged the community desire for better babies a while ago, I'm positive we'll be getting a pretty decent overhaul for babies in 2021.
