    Babies are not exactly like Sims in the Sims 4. You can't control them. Instead, have another Sim click on the baby carriage to perform these actions. The baby can't leave the bassinet.

    Bah, I clicked this expecting to find a picture of a TS4 baby with a baseball bat taking on a bunch of Sims.

    I was actually kind of hoping for that, too.

    Well, that's unfortunate. How invested are you in the household? If it's one that didn't take too much time or isn't one of your favorites, I'd just delete them. Babies really aren't as important or actually immersive in this game, so they're really just a commodity that you can easily overlook.

    If they treat the baby just like any other object I really think they should give us a volume control for them.

    Try moving the household out and then back in.

    Have you tried breastfeeding the baby? Or feeding the baby? I've found before the 'age up' option will appear you have to at least feed it once as a baby.

    Sounds like there might be an invisible object that only the Sims can see. Try repairing your game and deleting you cache. I had that happen to me a couple of times and doing what I mentioned did the trick.

    In some houses where there is a newborn I don't return to that house until the baby has aged up. :)

    Have you tried moving the baby to a different location? It sounds like it has something in the way. I had to move the toilet paper so my sim could use the toilet earlier today.

    ^^^ This. Try moving the baby around the house and see what works.

    Also, I'm very disappointed that this thread is not about sims and babies fighting. :/
    anyways,

    Hey guys!

    This looks like it might be a bug, if not it is definitely an issue that we want the SimDevs to take a look at!

    I am going to move this over to the correct section.

    Thanks,
    Gabriel

    Yeah, can you move the baby in build mode? Maybe the sims can't get to it.

    Hello.
    Repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.

    Try resetting the baby and see if that helps. First use the resetSim (first name) (second name) cheat and if that doesn't help, shift click on the baby and click reset.

    Remove any mods or cc, and see if that helps.

    Have your sims travel to another lot. Then have them come back home and that may help.

    Try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game and then add back the "options.ini" file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder.

    Did you try what I suggested in the above post?

    Try travelling to another lot and see if that helps.

    Also, see if moving home or moving them out of their home and then back in again helps.

    Remove any mods/cc from your game and see if that helps.

    Perhaps try to roll back your save file to an earlier version before your sim gave birth.
    These are links to how to roll back your save to an earlier version.
