Sims/Pets age up multiple times in a row

Its been about three weeks now and my infant will age up to toddler only to immediately age up to a child. I play super vanilla, only using the packs for content; no crazy downloads or mods. I've looked online to see if anyone else has been having this issue and it does not seem to be a lot which makes me worried.  

I've been trying to do the Sims 100 Baby Challenge and I'm at a complete stand still because my kids keep 'double aging' as I've been calling it.

  • this just happened to me with only one of my two twins in a 100 baby challenge. I'm on my 2nd matriarch right now and I've had 9 sets of twins before this one. this has never happened to me. and it very much disappoints me that this seems to have been a problem for at least 2 years. :[

  • Infant aged 3 times in a row until I paused and reset sim when he became an adult. He was sleeping on the ground when dad came to wake him up in order to feed him and then right after waking he aged up multiple times in a row before I could stop it. This happened with 2/70 of the sims birthed in my game.  All mods were off when this occured the 2nd time as the game had just been updated and I didn't bother to turn mods back on yet. 

  • Hi just wanted to report an rapid age glitch. I had to twin infants that woke from sleep and aged up to toddlers. Immediately after selecting the traits both aged into kids, then teens and when I got to the young adult stage I closed the game to not save progress. This happened only 5 mins IRL gameplay so I can note the only change I made in my game was pacing the new modern frame, placing the photos completing the event task activity. This was also my first time playing with the new expansion pack adventure awaits. No adventure will await until this glitch is fixed for me. I am a console player that maintains recent updates often. I hope I gave enough details to get this repaired.

    My sim was an infant, it was time for him to age up. He automatically aged up to a toddler, then as soon as I picked his trait, he continued to age up until he's an elder. No mods ever installed. I could not cancel the aging up.

    This just happened to me! I came here to see if it happened to anyone else! Debating aging them back down or just keeping going LOL.

  • In two save files so far, after loading them, I’ve noticed my Sims and others have randomly aged up. In one file, my Adult sims became Elders and my Teens became Young Adults while their birthdays were weeks away. In the other file, which was new, multiple Sims from different families had aged up. Mind you, I always play on long lifespan and this was a new, fresh save. I’ve been in Manage Worlds for both instances. I haven’t seen this happen while in Live Mode. I have yet to see Children, Toddlers, Infants, and Newborns be affected, but this definitely occurs with Young Adults and up.

    When my sims infant aged up to a toddler he aged into a child right after and then finally a teen before I closed the game without saving. It happened instantly after each age up. I just repaired my game today and don't use any script mods.
