More Realistic Baby Care Interactions

I would love to see expanded parent–baby gameplay in The Sims, with more realistic and interactive “mom life” features. While the current system is enjoyable, deeper day-to-day baby care would greatly improve immersion for family-focused players.

Some additions that would add meaningful depth include:

More feeding interactions (bottles, baby food, feeding schedules)
Babies being able to get sick, requiring care, comfort, and attention
Functional strollers for walks and outings
More teaching and developmental interactions (learning to crawl, walk, talk)
Additional bonding moments like reading, soothing, and guided play

These features would make caring for babies feel more realistic and rewarding, and would strengthen the life-simulation aspect that makes The Sims unique.
