    Thank you for watching everyone! Couple things I forgot to mention:
    1. Babies can spit up on you in Sims 2 if you play with them after feeding.
    2. You can have singles, twins, OR triplets in Sims 4 without mods too!
    3. You can hand babies over to other family members when you're holding them in Sims 2!

      @DoveJS 4 роки тому +32

      @@avakintrash2703 I think it was supposed to be intentional but they clearly hadn't fine-tuned it since children and even toddlers could accidentally bathe other toddlers in the sink (their animation skeleton got all wonky and there was no way for them to put the toddler down after.) Also possible it's coding they wanted to overlap with toddlers if they're working on actual Sim babies no longer being objects, but someone messed up and released some of the unfinished code early? I know Dr. Gluon has a video on it in his Sims Science Experiments LP and I was able to use it at least once awhile ago in one of my saves, before the Dec patch. (I haven't played with a household that has a toddler since then so can't confirm if it's still there.) Either way, I do hope we get it back. Washing a toddler in a sink is handy for tiny houses without a tub. :)

    Breast feeding was included in the sims 2 but they hid it. They must have decided feeding your child naturally was too controversial. There are a couple of mods out there that unlock this feature.
    A couple of other things that you didn't mention are the baby toys that came in the Sims 2 store. These add game play and can be downloaded for free from a few sites
    If the baby is going to be a messy sim, flies will buzz around them when their nappy/diaper is dirty. Jeremy had no flies so he has over 3 neat points.
    And CC clothes, hair and accessories are also available for sims 2 babies.
    Oh and one more thing that I remembered, when you adopt a baby the game randomly uses one adult female and male townie and makes the baby from their genes. So if you have no townies, you won't be able to adopt a baby.

    • @DoveJS

    Sims 2 babies: the cutest and I like how you can see their hair/eye colour.

    Babies in sims 2: they look super cute, have a cute cutscene, they can be brought anywhere, they have their own changing station (which I love), etc.
    Babies in sims 3: they look like burritos (it's kind of a downgrade but they're still kinda cute), they are selectable which is quite handy, they can be conceived at a hospital, they can be brought anywhere, they are not that annoying at all, etc.

    There is a funny/bizzare feature if you have seasons installed. If a sim puts the new-born in snow in winter, the baby will be covered in snow and show up as a snowy mound, and the baby will start to display thought bubbles showing that they are freezing or extremely cold. I think the thought bubbles are a way to remind the player where they have misplaced their baby.

    The changing table from the Sims 3 store gives the baby a positive moodlet if you change them using it, and you can also give them a bath, which also gives them a positive moodlet. So it's slightly more useful than just "looks cool".

  • @yoashmo

    In sims 3 you can also select any friends in the area to accompany your aim to the hospital. Have your in labor sim as your active and select another sim and click go to hospital. That sim will then go with your sim to the hospital. They may just go in and come back out or stay the whole time and ride home with your sim and new babies. That depends on relationship level.
    Also if you're anywhere and a sim goes into labor you can click them to take them to the hospital. This way you don't even have to know them, it's like doing a good deed. But your sim will stay at the hospital with the pregnant sim until they leave so don't have plans. Like I did, my good deed ate up the rest of the afternoon. And bc your sim is present for the birth they get a relationship boost with the newborn burrito too.

    Sims 2 babies are soooo stinking cute. I love them the most. The Sims 2 store content - the chair and danglemaster - are also absolutely adorable, they can hand the babies to each other, and someone put SO much thought and care and time into the animations between grown sims and babies. The feel the most "real" of all the Sims games.
    Sims 3 babies are actually my least favourite. I do like the stroller & rocking chairs added in the Sims 3, but I find them totally uninteresting otherwise and I don't like the constant swaddle, or their animations.
    Sims 4 needs to liberate and completely remodel the babies, but I like the pregancy process, the interactions you can do with the crib, and the parenting skill in the Sims 4. The S4 baby faces are literally terrifying though.... they give me actual nightmares!

    Another thing about Sims 2 babies, if you have Pets installed and a cat is in your household, if the cat's social bar is low, it will autonomously "Ask for Love/Hug" any Sims on the lot. When asking a child or older Sim, this works perfectly fine, cat gets a hug. When asking a toddler, this causes the ADORABLE "Cuddle Cat" action. However, if all sims toddlers and older are busy and there is a baby on the lot, the cat will attempt to ask the baby for a hug - the cat will walk all the way to the crib and meow, then the interaction will drop because the baby cannot give the cat a hug.

    I think the explanation of babies having a higher relationship with the mom for home births via hospital births is to be more realistic.
    Hospital births that involve medication (ie epidurals and inducing meds) effect how much oxytocin is produced during birth. Oxytocin is a chemical our bodies produce to facilitate in bonding with your new child.
    The game is saying
    hospital births=meds=less oxytocin=less bonding=lower starting relationship
    Home births=no meds=more oxytocin=more bonding= higher starting relationship

The only thing that I really miss is the fact that in TS2 you can bathe babies in the sink and that's extremely cute.
