As of yet, this is the only current information that we have regarding this hotly-requested update. Many feel that The Sims 4 lacks the heart and soul of the previous releases.
According to these sources, ‘baby’ was not originally listed under ages for sims in this line of code, thus denoting an upcoming change.
As fans of the series will know, babies were treated as actual sims by The Sims 2 and 3. They were able to be removed from their crib and taken around the house, with lovely features like baby swings.
However, this experience is stripped back to an incredibly primitive state in the current iteration. Babies are basically objects that are tied to their bassinets. This is similar to how the controversial hamster, rat, pygmy hedgehog, and miniature bubalus pets were handled in the My First Pet Stuff.
