On the October 23 dev chat, a question was asked about babies having different height and weight when born. One dev said they probably wouldn’t have visual indicators of these differences, but it could possibly be listed on a birth announcement just for added uniqueness. That made me think about adding birth certificates as a feature. I think it would be so cute if after each birth we could get a birth certificate for the baby/babies. It’s been suggested before, so I thought maybe we could have a thread to think of more ideas.

I think the birth certificate could list the Para’s full name, each parent’s full name, baby’s gender, the birth height and weight, eye color, hair color, and time of birth.

And for multiples something extra could be that their birth certificate lists which number the child is and if they are identical or fraternal. Like the 2nd born baby in a identical triplet birth would show “baby 2” and “identical triplet” somewhere on their certificate.

And of course, an option to edit the birth certificate if the player wants for any reason.

I think it would also be cute if you could frame or hang up birth certificates somewhere in the house.

Any other ideas of what could be shown on a hypothetical birth certificate? Or any other gameplay that could be related to them?

This is honestly an amazing idea and them not having a visual difference is totally fine.

I think this would be a really cute addition to gameplay! Especially being able to hang up birth certificates in frames in their nursery.

I think itd be nice if they stated where the para was born as well like the world and town, and also maybe the time 🙂

  Omg, I totally didn’t even think about adding where they were born. That would be a nice addition, especially once we start getting new towns and the world creation tool. I love that idea?

I love this idea! I remember in Sims 3 when there was a new baby in town, you could see the name and the weight of the baby when you read the newspaper. I hope this will be added to the game.
