Having a baby could be one of the best moments of your Sim's Life. But will it be one of your best moments? Here are some tips to make the experience better for you and your Sim Parents.

Advice tips:

• When a baby cries, every adult in the same room will wake up. Therefore do not place the baby in the same bedroom as the parents, instead, have one of the parents sleep with the baby in another room. This will reduce the time it will take for your Sim to respond to a cry (it may take them a while to wake up)
  
  
• If a Sim misses work two days in a row then he/she will loose their job, as somebody has to look after the baby all day, let the parents take turns at missing work.
  
  
• If your family already has children remember they also can help with looking after the baby, this might be best when they come home from school, allowing your tired Sim parent to have a nap.
  

Parenting can be a great thing, just keep these simple ideas in mind and everything will be ok.

A tired parent gets a well earned rest
