'''Baby''' is the first [[life stage]] in ''[[The Sims]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', ''[[The Sims 3]]'', and ''[[The Sims 4]]'' (excluding [[pregnancy]], in the case of the latter games). It is also present in ''[[The Sims Stories]]'' series, and ''[[The Sims Medieval]]'', which are spin-offs of ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims 3'', respectively, and in ''[[The Sims FreePlay]]''.
 
There are no pre-made babies in ''The Sims'' series, although some pre-made Sims start out pregnant. Babies cannot be made in [[Create a Sim]].
Line 105:
Babies are the first life stage in ''[[The Sims 4]]''. For the first time ever in the main series, new mothers are able to {{Wiki|Breastfeeding|breastfeed}} their babies.<ref>https://twitter.com/SimGuruLyndsay/statuses/479408175745994752</ref> Breastfeeding was previously used instead of bottle feeding in ''[[The Sims Medieval]]''.
 
Teen Sims and older can interact with babies, (i.e. cooing at them, cuddling them, bouncing them, rocking them, and showing them off to other Sims). Children cannot pick up babies, but can coo at them. As in ''The Sims'' and earlier versions of ''The Sims FreePlay'', babies in ''The Sims 4'' are tied to their bassinet and cannot be carried around by other Sims. Fans have found a glitch in the game which is another way in which parents can interact with their children. If the baby is crying and one of the baby’s parents goes to the bathroom after eating two watermelons, the baby will stop crying and become a sussy baka. The child will age up immediately and say DEEZ NUTS JOKES DEEZ NUTS CAN DEEZ NUTS FIT IN YO MOUTH SEE DEEZ NUTS
 
Bassinets are automatically provided free-of-charge if the pregnant Sim gives birth at a hospital. If, however, the player wants to have a pregnant Sim give birth at home, the player will need to purchase the bassinet prior to the birth. If a Sim's labor moodlet expires or is about to expire, the social services will give a free bassinet. A bassinet is non-transferable until its original occupant ages up, but it is possible to change the color using the design tool.
Line 144:
Sims can also have babies in ''[[The Sims FreePlay]] ''after the Two and A Half Sims quest. Babies can be gained by placing a crib (bought from the home store or children’s store) in a household where two adult Sims live.<ref group="n">Prior to the pregnancy update, the two adult Sims had to be [[marriage|married]] before the cot could be purchased.</ref> The player must then click on the baby icon above the cot. If the icon is grey then a baby cannot be attained because either the player has reached their current Sim limit or there are already four Sims living in that household. If the icon is blue, then a baby can be bought with a number of [[Simoleon]]s and it will appear in the cot after a day. The player can also choose to go through a pregnancy journey, like main Sims games, with rewards, after the pregnancy store is built. At this point, the baby's gender, clothing, and eye and skin color can be selected. Players may choose whether or not to have the baby look like its parents.
 
The new baby will now show up in the Simtracker and can be selected. This means that the player can see the baby's needs and get other Sims to interact with and care for the baby. Babies can only leave their crib if a teen Sim or older is tending to their needs, and as of level 10, adult Sims can carry them, place them on the ground and teach them to walk after doing the Nanny Knows Best quest. Babies are very easy to look after and can be sent to sleep manually any time they are in their cot. Unlike other games, babies can be left home alone. If the baby's needs get too low, it will start to cry and scream. Babies also cry if they want an adult to pick them up. They will be sussy bakas.

Line 165:
*Babies in ''The Sims 2'' cannot be woken when asleep on the floor, but can always be picked up with the Hold Baby option when in a crib. If a baby is sleeping on the floor but needs to be woken up, turn on the TV or an audio system in the same room so that the noise will wake them. This trick also works with toddlers.
*When playing with a baby in ''The Sims 2'', it is possible that the baby will vomit on the poor Sim playing with them. This will abort the "play with" interaction and reduce said Sim's [[hygiene]] motive. The Sim and the baby will not lose relationship points, however.
*You are a dog
*In ''The Sims 2'' and ''The Sims 3'', after a pregnant Sim gives birth, they will get three days of maternity leave. The baby should normally be ready to age up into a toddler by the end of this period, though this may not be the case in ''The Sims 3'' depending on which aging settings the player is using.
*Always try to keep a crib nearby in ''The Sims 2'' or ''The Sims 3''. Having at least one per floor is easier than carrying babies up and down the stairs all the time.
