Please Help! How do you relocate a baby (by itself)?
Okay guys I got a major crisis here. So one of my couples got divorced today, the guy moved out first to live alone in another house and then the ex-wife went to move in with her new fiance. The problem is that the newly-divorced have a baby boy. Now that both his parents have moved out, he is living alone in a two story designer home with no one to care for him. Is there a way I can move him with his mom? I hate to think that he has to be out on his own. Not to mention with him occupying the house I can't get other people to move in so the house is now basically deserted. I really didn't know this would happen when you divorce a married couple... If you guys can help me fix this you will have my undying gratitude!!

A baby can move with the family, or if it's an orphan, it can be adopted by another sim. With the adoption the baby moves to the new family. Currently there is no other way to relocate a baby.
Do you have a fresh cloudsave from the time before the mom moved out? Then you could reset the game and go ahaid from there. If the new friend of the mom moves in to her and the baby, they can move into another house and take the baby with them. But I'd only do this, if I wouldn't lose too much of progress.
Depending on what you want for those sims, there are different ways to go on without resetting the game.

Thank you so much ErinPW, I restored the game just now. Luckily I only lost about 6 hours of progress. So not a big deal. The problem was that the new fiance that the mom moved in with has a baby of his own... So if I let him move in with her, his baby would be living alone. So I figured for the time being I'd just not let the marry. Still, thanks for the reply! I didn't know the baby is not relocatable on its own.

Do you know, babies can grow up to toddlers quickly without using LPs, if you want?

Wow I wasn't aware of that, it's been a long while since I last let one of my sims have a baby. But then can you move a toddler with his/her parent?ErinPW wrote:You're welcomeroxiejen wrote:[snip]

Unfortunately not But you can whistle them over to other places, so you can have them at least all together in one house. If the children grew up to teens, they can be asked to move in by any adult or senior sim.roxiejen wrote:Wow I wasn't aware of that, it's been a long while since I last let one of my sims have a baby.

As soon as a baby has a personality, aging up to a toddler is free. You can assign a personality while creating the baby or later by tapping a wardrobe while the baby is the active sim. Then tap the baby and choose "have a birthday" You'll get a popup: "Do yo want to perform this action?" Tap "yes" if you want to.Lavenderwitch519 wrote:[snip]

From toddler to preteen it takes a bit longer. I choose the entertainer personality with a sleeping-lifedream and let the toddler hibernate, as that's "easy care". When he wakes up, his life dream is fulfilled and aging for free again Then I decide, which personality and lifedream is the right one for this sim.
This all only works, if you have completed the Lifedream & Legacy Quest.

I see. I'm not certain whether I want the babies to age up right away but thanks for the info! You've been such a great help!

did you try to move the crib to the house you wanted the baby at, then restart the game? Just an idea for next time
