Okay, This Nearly Brought Me to Tears

It’s exciting! I hope they continue to show us screenshots or videos of the little one. The one they showed was simply adorable

I didn't watch the livestream. I just read the notes EA_Cade posted for us. I'm hoping there will be a link for those of us who missed it.

Yeh this is soooo exciting!!! 2023 can't come quick enough imo

We have two major holidays to help make the time go by faster. :) Sink yourself into the Seasons coming and that should help. I just hope I'm not expecting too much. I am even considering rolling back to before my Sims become parents. If these infants are what I'm hoping for, I definitely will do that. If not, I'll just continue on from where I am.

I don’t particularly want to delay my stories for three months or so. I’ll just incorporate this new gameplay into the saves when it comes! I may start a test save to properly get used to everything.

Here’s a link to the livestream @GalacticGal it’s just over 31 minutes long and the babies ?? sneak peek is at the very end starting at about 30:48.

Oh, I'll keep playing my game and sharing stories, to be sure. But I always do a Save As, with each gaming session, so if I need to, I can roll back and/or recover a save to continue going forward. I just would like to experience the infants with this particular favorite Sim of mine. I started a Flashback version for HSY, which was far better than just starting all over from scratch, to a degree. I have since made this save my new Main Save RESET. It all depends on what they give us. I'll determine what to do when they 'drop', which I presume is what's going to take place, such as when we got Toddlers.

In the course of watching things just now, I did see an infant in a high chair, wriggling around. It shall be entirely interesting to see what they've been able to do. I recall the infant from Sims2, which was limited in its own way. But not tethered, thankfully.

Ah, I understand!

lol my sim already gave birth to her first child Jessica. Poor Jessica is of course locked in her crib all day and all night. Well at least her future siblings will be freeeeeee.

Taken from the announcement page:

"We’re also excited to share that infants will be arriving in early 2023!"

Considering that's only a few short months away, I may stall the birth of my Sims' children for a bit. Or, roll back to fully enjoy what this may mean. Too excited for words.

Yep….. I actually did get tears on my eyes when I heard that baby cry. And even more surprised when I saw the baby crawI, sit up, and fall over. I have been wanting babies so badly for so long. And it looks like our sims are going to be able to take them with them when they leave the house too. I’m so excited over babies and also probably a generations pack. There was a picture of a child on a bike as well as an infant in a back pack. I hope they also update children to be able to play things like tag and cops and robbers and things too,

I'm very excited for the new babies too. Personally I don't think they will replace either our bassinet bound babies or our toddlers, as that would seem like it would mess up people's saves. I think it's a new lifestate between babies and toddlers. So we'll have "newborns" (bassinet babes), "infants" as the sims team referred to them, but I'm going to call them "early toddlers" lol, and our current toddlers, which will be "later toddlers" or maybe even preschoolers.

I could be wrong of course but that's what I think.
