I don't like them because they do this sometimes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wenxGmeeZ9M WHY. EA, babies are not cars, they are babies - They also have legs, and move. EA does not understand the concept of babies. |

As much as it was more realistic, I do NOT miss the changing table, nor the diapers and bottles all over the floor that the sims would all refuse to clean up. |

I'm big on babies in real life, and that love has carried over to simulation babies. In the Sims 2 my sims were always pregnant, just so I could take care of the babies and toddlers over and over again. But babies in the Sims 3 are so BORING. And they all look the same, no matter HOW the parents look. In real life, I can usually look at a baby and select it's parents out of a group of people. But these babies are all the same, and they're all ugly. |

I think they're cute. I do wish they didn't all look the same, with the exception of skin tone. I don't like the blanket-thing around them constantly, it looks really stupid whilst taking them for a stroll in the stroller. |

I just wanted to say that I don't think it would be too much work to have the little babies babble and coo and wave their hands around while they were awake in the game. I would feel much less creeped out. But the idea that they just lie there staring at the ceiling... eww. I also don't like that they have the baby swing set up that you can leave them in their for several days and never take them out. I know it's just a silly game, but container baby syndrome (babies who get left in their swings, cribs, boppy chairs, car seats or other containers so long that their heads are actually deformed and they are developmentally delayed) is real and I don't like that the game endorses baby containers to the point that you can toss a baby in a container and never take them out until they are children if you don't want to. http://nspt4kids.com/parenting/the-...baby-lifestyle/ <--- Article on container baby syndrome. |

I just wished that their faces looked different. And it was easier to make good looking babies that actually look good when they grow up. Other than than I don't mind. I don't mind pudding faces either. *hides from the pitchforks and the fire* |

itsamariokart - I put my own daughter in a swing for quite a bit of time. Most parents put the kids in those swings and stuff for when company comes over or when there are chores. When they have container baby syndrome you can tell because they are very placid and non-curious at an age where they should be looking around and wanting to move, and you can actually SEE the flat head. I bet your friend doesn't put her in as much as you think she does. The people I know who had babies with container syndrome had triplets and they couldn't physically hold the babies as much as they wanted to. The triplets were also preemies so spent several weeks in NICU and got flat heads from that - but when a baby needs ICU containering is usually the least of their problems. The kids had special helmets on their heads for a year and it cured the container head and they are now developmentally normal. |

Babies don't do anything on the sims 3? What is this? My sims current baby has a preference for salsa music, can actively distinguish the difference between salsa and pop, can appreciate the fact that the sims lot is a 'Beautiful Vista' lot, AND enjoyed watching a game at the local stadium! Ha. |

I agree- The sims 2 babies were not only more realistic but more functional. You could bathe them in the sink and if I remember correctly they actually had more interactions. I also personally liked not being able to see their needs, it added a bit of challenge. |

I think they look just fine. I don't really know about the differences between babies in TS2 and TS3 though, since my wife in TS2 died before she's able to give a birth to the baby  and I was like 12 years old or something when that happened

For some reason, I like the baby blankets (just figured out you can customize them through MasterController). I always thought the plain diaper outfit in TS2 looked so cold. At least TS3 babies are warm and snuggly! But I do wish they had some physical variance (seriously, what's with the eye color?), and had more options to interact. In any case, I have the life stage set to four days, so they're never around very long, anyway. |

Purplepaws, if you save the new blanket configurations in CAS that you make using Master Controller, there's a chance when a new baby is born they'll have a random colour instead of the blue = boy, pink = girl default (I've got it set up so they have a rainbow of colours available and I've seen babies come out of the hospital in red, green and yellow blankets in addition to blue and pink). |

They're kind of cute... But eh. I don't like aging sims up before their birthday so I have it set to two days for infants. I definitely prefer the babies in TS2 but I don't really mind the ones in TS3 too much. I just wish they'd move. Babies move. They do not lay in their crib all day staring at the ceiling until they are a few years old. I'm guessing no one at EA has children? They look like little worms. xD |

Cool, thanks for telling me! I did save a nice pale lilac blanket but haven't witnessed any births since, so I had no idea. Now I'm going to have to make more! | |

I age my little babies up after a day or two, so it makes no difference to me how they look... I am glad they fixed their heads, though... Quote:
Yup. I do wish the TS3 babies moved around a little bit, though. |

I also wish that they would look like the sims2 babies and have the interactions those babies have. I solved they diaper only problem by downloading some of the cute PJ's for babies that modders had created. |

The babies have looks? I thought they were just innocuous blue or pink blankets. |

I have a same sex couple, and no Male Preggers mod, so it's just the Clone Voucher for me! Even if I choose to adopt, my sims are like "What is this baby thing you speak of??" |

Funnily, even as a pro-Sims 2 person, I don't dislike the look of Sims 3 babies. Their faces look cute to me. It is the look of the Sims 3 toddlers and children that I just can't stand. They're hideous in my opinion. The sad and depressed face which follows you, when you make them selectable and try to click on something else makes it even worse. |
